Safety Considerations While Running A Portable Generator
July 24, 2023 - If you have read anything at all about generators then you know that manufacturers issue plenty of warnings about running your generator outside too close to an open window or running it in a garage in your home. The risk is CO poisoning. But, too many people take this risk because they do not feel it is good for their generator to run out in the rain or snow.
Starting and using your generator in wet weather can allow water or dampness into the outlets and then you risk damage to your portable generator and possible electrocution to yourself. Some of the generators on the market have ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) outlets which will shut themselves off when they get wet. This would obviously render your generator of no use to you, and you certainly would not want to go near it until it can dry out.
If you have stored your generaor outdoors when not in use, uncovered and unprotected from the weather, moisture or ice can cause a short circuit in the electrical components that could result in electrocution to you or someone else.
A good generator cover or tent enclosure that is designed to protect your generator from bad weather, be it during a power outage at your home or just while you are camping or tailgating, is a good investment. You not only protect your generator, but also yourself and have an alternative power source available when you need it most.
A cover also helps make these bright colored generators less noticeable to the would be thief.
No matter where you store your portable generator while not in use you need to keep it securely covered. The Porch Shield Waterproof Universal generator cover is a heavy duty cover with elastic hem cord and bottom straps that give it a secure fit on your generator to protect it from dust, UV rays, rain and general dampness. The cover is quickly easy to remove when your power is off and you need to use your generator for alternative power. The Porch Shield cover has a water-resistant laminated undercoating for further protection of your portable generator. This cover is available in 3 sizes. The Porch Shield cover also comes in three colors: Light Tan, Gray and Black.
If your portable generator has an automatic start feature then you should consider getting an automatic battery trickle charger to keep your battery charged and ready for use when you need the generator.
