Since one horsepower is equivalent to just 746 W, it is clear that the motor cannot drive a 3000-W generator! You cannot get more power out of a system than you put into it!

The generator should be about ¾ hp.


Can a 6000 watt generator power a 25hp ac electric motor?

No it what work 756 watts = 1 HP. You would need a generator that can supply 756 x 25 = 18900 watts.


Can a 1 hp electric motor run a 3000 watt alternator?

Usual configuration, it is an engine that is used to turn a generator not a motor. If you mean it the other way around, will a 3000 watt generator have enough output to operate a 1 HP motor. 1 HP is equal to 746 watts. Keep in mind when a motor start it can take up to 300% of its full load amperage.

How do you hook the 4 wires which are 2 whites 1 red and 1 black coming from the back of a generator to an outlet for 120v and 240v?

The whites are Neutrals or Grounds and the Red and Black are each 120v. One white and either the black or red for 120v and one white, both the red and black for 240v.


Can a generator rated 120V-60HZ 15Amps power an electric chainsaw with the same ratings and a max HP 0f 4.0?

A couple of things are going on here. According to the specifications you have given your generator has a continuous output to W = A x V. 15 x 120 = 1800 watts.If the chainsaw has the same ratings as the generator it should start the chainsaw. The generator might dip a bit when the saw first starts but should pick up the load. If the rating on the chainsaw states 4 HP then that is higher that what the generator can handle. For calculation purposed 1 HP is equal to 746 watts. 746 x 4 = 2984 watts. This is 1184 watts or 9.8 amps more than the generator can produce. The best thing is to try the saw on the generator. You will not do any damage because if the load is too great, the generator's breaker will trip. If the generator handles the start up of the saw, then load the saw up by cutting a good size branch. If the breaker does not trip then you are good to go. If the breaker does trip now you know why. To solve the problem a 3000 watt generator will do the job.
