generator question [RE-wrenches]

[Todd Cory, Mt. Shasta Energy Services]

I have a customer looking for a backup generator to feed a SW4024
running an off grid (solar / micro hydro) system. He wants a propane
unit and has looked at Onan, Kohler and Honda's. He checked with the
local electrical house in town and they recommend (what they sell)
Generac units. What do list members suggest when looking for a generator
that will run off of propane and see relatively little use?

Do any generators allow for 120 volt winding paralleling, or do you have
to run them unbalanced or add a 240 to 120 transformer... and how
important is it to do that?

Thanks in advance for the suggestions and information.

Todd Cory
