Miller's Accu-Rated truly useable peak power is delivered for a minimum of 30 seconds. Accu-Rated means peak power is usable for maximum generator loads such as plasma cutting, Millermatics, and motor starting. Accu-Rated peak power beats the competition's very short duration surge power. Use your peak power, it's more than a number. | ||||
