We live in a rural community which has the typical power outages. A few weeks back, a storm ripped through Ohio on it's way to the East Coast. We lost power for almost 5 days. The Generac kicked in perfectly, but when the power was returned at 85 volts, the transfer switch chattered to death!!! In talking with the local dealer, this happens all the time. He mentioned that virtually hundreds of people complained about this problem during the "big blow" of a few weeks ago.
Does anyone have a fix here? I think it odd that the leader in backup generators who prides themselves on Industry Leadership, has let this one go. Plus, I hear that batteries on the units may explode due to the way they maintain a charge. Four blew here in N. Ohio........
