DESCRIPTION
The Cat® RP8000 E is ideal for light commercial use and can power critical home loads in seconds.The workhorse you need
The best choice when the job calls for power
This powerful yet still very portable generator is good for any light industrial application when you need a lot of power in a small footprint. You can take to any location, even across rough terrain. The RP8000 E provides several hours of run time, even when powering multiple items:- Table Saws

CO DEFENSE™ − Detect. Protect.
At Caterpillar, safety is our top priority. This RP8000 E is equipped with Cat® CO DEFENSE™ Carbon Monoxide Sensing & Shutdown technology keeps you, your family, and friends safe. When carbon monoxide reaches unsafe levels, the sensor light will blink red and the generator will shut down. Once this happens, leave the area immediately until it’s safe to return.
Safety first
We've designed our portable generators with your safety in mind. Snap-fit rubber outlet covers keep vital connections between your valuable devices and the generator protected against moisture, dust and debris . We've also installed ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI) that shut off the power if it detects an issue in order to keep you safe.
