Generac RG06045JNAX – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Generac RG06045JNAX 60kW generator come with an automatic transfer switch?
No. The RG06045JNAX ships as the generator only, so the transfer switch is a separate line item on your order. Size it against the 200 A current rating and the 120/240 volt three phase output before you buy, and budget for the ATS enclosure and load-side wiring as part of the install.
2) Will a Generac Protector 60kW RG06045JNAX work on a single phase service?
No. The RG06045JNAX is configured 120/240 volt three phase. If your building service is single phase, this is the wrong unit and you need the single phase version of the Protector at the same kW rating. Confirm the phase on the utility service before ordering, because the alternator configuration is not field convertible.
3) How much room do I need around a 60kW Generac Protector, and how close can it sit to the building?
The unit itself is 97 inches long, 38 inches wide and 49 inches tall, and it is approved for an 18 inch offset, meaning it can be set just 18 inches from the structure. That 18 inch clearance is what makes it workable on tight lot lines and narrow side yards. Keep the full 97 inch length in mind when laying out the pad, since that is the dimension most sites run short on.
4) Can the RG06045JNAX run on natural gas, or does it have to be propane?
Either one. The Protector 60kW is set up for liquid propane or natural gas, so you pick the fuel at install based on what is at the site. The Generac 4.5L engine uses an ultra low pressure fuel delivery system, which matters when you are sizing the gas line and confirming the pressure the utility or the LP tank can deliver at full load.
5) Will a Generac 60kW liquid-cooled unit start a large air conditioning or process motor load?
It is built for it. The liquid cooled 4.5L Generac engine is specified for strong motor starting at initial startup, which is the case for buildings with big AC compressors, pumps or process equipment. Rated and surge output are both 60,000 watts, so size your largest motor's starting draw against that figure rather than assuming extra surge headroom.
6) Is a 60kW Protector clean enough to run sensitive electronics, servers and medical equipment?
True Power technology holds total harmonic distortion under 5 percent, which is utility grade quality, and automatic voltage regulation is built in. That combination is what lets it carry computers, controls and other sensitive loads without a separate conditioning stage.
7) How does a facility manager monitor and exercise a Generac Protector standby generator?
Mobile Link connectivity is standard, so status is visible from a phone, tablet or PC anywhere. The Evolution controller with its LCD sits where you can read it without opening the enclosure, and it tracks maintenance intervals and hours on a built in hour meter. Quiet-Test self test runs the weekly, bi-weekly or monthly exercise cycle at reduced RPM for five or twelve minutes, which keeps the noise and the fuel burn down on a site with neighbors.
8) Will the enclosure on a Generac Protector 60kW hold up outdoors on a coastal or industrial site?
The enclosure is all aluminum with a RhinoCoat powder coated finish, so corrosion resistance is the point of the design rather than an option. Frame material is aluminum as well, and the finish color is Bisque, a neutral tone meant to sit quietly in landscaping or against a building wall.
9) What protects the Generac RG06045JNAX if it loses oil or gets overloaded during an outage?
Low oil shutdown and overload protection are both built in, and the engine uses automatic override start so it picks up the load without anyone on site. For an unattended MRO installation that combination is what keeps a failed start or a load fault from turning into an engine replacement.
