  1. How many amps is 24 KW?

    1. The number of amps produced is dependant on the fuel used, the explaination follows:
      Natural gas is 21Kw, 87.5 amps @ 240v (21,000w divided by 240v equals 87.5A)
      Propane (LP) is 24Kw, 100 amps @ 240v (As Walt99ccim explained "24 Kw is a 100 amp generator. 24Kw =24,000 watts divided by 240 volts = 100 amps" @ 240v).
      The reason for the "@240v" is that residential service is normally 120v + 120v (equalling 240v combined) and each of the 120v sides has either 87.5A or 100A depending on which fuel is available.

    2. No, your home electrical panel needs to be rated for 100 amp service, the switch gear is rated for 200A, but this particular generator is only capable of producing 100A on propane and 87.5A on natural gas, but if you want you can always have your residential service upgraded to 200A.

      Helpful?

  3. What is the horsepower and what is the consumption using natural gas?

    1. The generator would have an approximate 34 horsepower engine. At full load, it would use 203 cubic feet per hour of natural gas
