Westinghouse iGen4500 generator with no power at the receptacles

no power at the receptacles and the Output Ready LED off means No AC output. Westinghouse says the green Output Ready LED lights when the generator is operating normally and producing power at the receptacles, so with it off there is no output. This answer applies only to Westinghouse iGen4500 digital inverter generators, as described in Westinghouse's iGen4500 user manual. Westinghouse's other iGen models have similar lights but their own manuals, so the model decides, and only the iGen4500 manual was read.

On the covered Westinghouse iGen4500 generator, no power at the receptacles and the Output Ready LED off means no AC output. Westinghouse says the green Output Ready LED lights when the generator is operating normally and producing power at the receptacles, so with it off there is no output. First, check whether the Overload LED is on, and whether an AC circuit breaker on the control panel has tripped.

    Reversible

    Check whether the Overload LED is on, and whether an AC circuit breaker on the control panel has tripped.

  2. Correct only the documented fault domain

    Reversible

    Westinghouse's no-power table lists: with the OUTPUT READY LED off and the OVERLOAD LED on, check the AC load, check the air inlet and stop and restart the engine; if an AC circuit breaker tripped, check the loads and reset the breaker; if a tool or appliance is faulty, repair or replace it and stop and restart the engine; and if none of that applies, the generator may be faulty and Westinghouse says to contact its customer service.
