Honda EB5000X

Honda EB5000XThe Honda EB5000X is a single-phase AC portable generator with 5.0 kVA of maximum power and 4.5 kVA of rated power and 60 Hz of rated frequency. The EB5000X generator is available with 120/240 V rated voltage.

The Honda EB5000X generator uses one of three engines: Honda GX340, Honda GX390 or Honda iGX390.

The Honda GX340 and Honda GX390 are single-cylinder gasoline engines with 337 cc (20.6 cu·in) and 389 cc (23.7 cu.in) of displacement, respectively. The iGX390 is version of the GX390 engine with an ECU (electronic control unit) and a self-tuning regulator (STR) governor system.
