Generator Accessories

The accessories you need depend on how you use your generator. Many customers start with generator covers, heavy-duty power cords, transfer switch cords, maintenance kits, and extension cords. If you own an inverter generator, you may also benefit from parallel kits to increase power output. Choosing the right accessories helps improve safety, convenience, and generator performance.

For home backup, the most useful accessories include generator power cords, manual transfer switch cords, weather-resistant covers, and maintenance kits. Transfer switch accessories allow you to safely connect compatible generators to your home's electrical system, while power cords help deliver electricity where it's needed. Routine maintenance items also help ensure your generator is ready before an outage occurs.

Compatibility depends on your generator's brand, model, power output, and outlet configuration. We carry accessories designed for brands such as Cummins, DuroMax, DuroStar, Firman, ALP, EcoFlow, and AIMS Power. Always verify connector types, amperage ratings, and supported models before purchasing. If you're unsure which accessory fits your generator, we're happy to help.

A parallel kit allows you to connect two compatible inverter generators together to increase available power output. This is useful if you occasionally need more power without purchasing a larger generator. Products such as the Cummins Onan 50A Parallel Kit, DuroMax Parallel Kit, and ALP Generator Parallel Cables are designed specifically for compatible generator models. Parallel kits are especially popular with RV owners and homeowners who need additional power during emergencies.

A generator cover helps protect your equipment from dust, dirt, UV exposure, and moisture during storage. We offer model-specific covers for brands such as Cummins, Firman, DuroMax, and others to help keep your generator in excellent condition. Using the correct cover can extend the life of your generator and ensure it's ready when you need it.

The correct power cord depends on your generator's outlet type, amperage, and intended application. We offer 30-amp and 50-amp generator cords, RV adapters, transfer switch cords, and heavy-duty extension cords for a variety of generator models. Using the proper cord helps ensure safe, reliable power delivery while minimizing voltage loss.

Routine maintenance accessories help keep your generator running reliably and extend its lifespan. Popular products include maintenance kits, replacement batteries, high-altitude kits, propane regulator kits, generator oils, and filters. Performing regular maintenance before storm season or long-term storage helps ensure your generator is ready when you need it.

If you plan to power household circuits directly, a transfer switch is strongly recommended. Compatible accessories such as manual transfer switch cords make it easier to connect approved generators safely. A properly installed transfer switch helps prevent dangerous backfeeding and simplifies home backup operation. Always follow local electrical codes and installation requirements.

Yes. While accessories don't increase your generator's power output, they can improve safety, convenience, and reliability. Heavy-duty power cords help reduce voltage loss, maintenance kits keep engines running efficiently, and parallel kits increase available power on compatible inverter generators. Choosing the right accessories helps you get the most from your generator investment.

Most generator owners start with a weather-resistant cover, heavy-duty power cord, and a maintenance kit to protect their investment and keep it operating reliably. Depending on your setup, you may also benefit from a parallel kit, transfer switch cord, propane hose, or RV adapter.
