> On the other hand, 27kW is a LOT of generating capacity for one home. I consider that the average home (at least in my area) only has 200A service

Uh, a 27kW generator is 225A at 120v, it’s the model you use if you want whole-house backup generator for a 200A service…

That’s not how you calculate amps. We don’t know if it’s single or three phase. It’s 113 amps @ 240v single phase.

You are correct, my bad. It’s 120/240 single phase, so 113 amps.
