How do you make a generator cord that would be a four prong male plug on one end and a three prong male end on the other for a 240v 30a that would plug into a house wall plug?
If your generator is designed to work as backup power for a house, it will be wired to your electrical feed through a transfer switch. If you attempt to power your house through a plug-in connection, particularly a 120V connection, you will probably not power the entire house and all the power that your house uses will be fed through one circuit breaker. An improperly installed back up generator is very dangerous, and is unlikely to work as you hope.
What's more beneficial a whole house generator or single gas generator?
I have done a little bit of research on this, and can tell you that a whole house generator is the way to go, if you can afford it. They are hardwired into your home's electrical system, and will usually run your whole house. A single use generator is usually very noisy, and limited as to how much it can power at one time in your home.
How can you wire a 110V plug outlet on a generator to stop the plug from melting?
If the plug is melting it is because of a heat build up caused by loose connections. If the plug is not a moulded plug check that the screws are tight. If it is not that, then the plug blades are not tight enough in the receptacle. Change out the receptacle on the generator. Draw a picture of the receptacle and mark where each wire goes. The best way of doing is is when you have the new receptacle take one wire off of the old receptacle and put it in the same position on the new receptacle. Having tight blade connections will prevent the plug overheating and melting.
