Generac RG06045 60kW 1-Phase Generator
The Generac RG06045 is a robust 60kW single-phase standby generator in the Protector® Series, purpose-built to support large residences, estates, and small businesses with mission-critical power needs. With its high capacity, advanced digital controls, and rugged build, this model offers premium backup power protection and unmatched reliability during outages.
Powered by a 4.5L turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine, the RG06045 operates at a low 1800 RPM, reducing engine stress, enhancing fuel efficiency, and extending service life. It runs on either liquid propane or natural gas, with fuel selection handled digitally through the onboard Evolution™ Controller, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. At full load, it consumes approximately 8.4 gallons of LP or 808 cubic feet of NG per hour.
The unit produces 120/240V single-phase power with clean, utility-grade output thanks to Generac’s True Power™ Technology, maintaining less than 5% total harmonic distortion (THD)—ideal for sensitive equipment, electronics, and smart home systems. The generator also integrates ±1% voltage regulation to ensure stable performance across all loads.
Control and diagnostics are managed through the Evolution™ Controller, featuring a backlit multilingual LCD screen and real-time monitoring capabilities. With Mobile Link™ Wi-Fi connectivity standard, users can access system status, receive maintenance alerts, and control settings remotely from any smartphone or computer.
Despite its high output, the RG06045 is designed with quiet operation in mind. It operates at 72 dB(A) under load and 68 dB(A) during Quiet-Test™ mode, a self-testing feature that runs the generator at a lower RPM for quieter, more fuel-efficient weekly checks.
Its RhinoCoat™-finished aluminum enclosure is corrosion-resistant, wind-rated to 145 mph, and built to handle the harshest outdoor conditions. A compact 97" x 38" footprint helps streamline installation, even in space-conscious properties.
This generator is UL 2200 listed, EPA emissions compliant, and approved for use in California and Massachusetts, meeting strict environmental and safety requirements.
