Problem with Rheem 40 GAL ELEC TALL Water Heater 6YR SC 82VH402 Can I run the hot water heater with a generator Reverse polarity may not allow me to run the hot water heater with a generator Yes. Ordinary electric water heater can run on any voltage from any direction (excluding volt/amp ratings below what can heat element coil). Voltages include single-phase, split phase, and 3-phase residential/commercial voltages with either 50 or 60 Hz. http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-water-heater-for-120-Volt.html http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-water-heater-thermostats.html#3-phase Install line fuse. 30 amp fuse would be required to prevent wires from overheating, and eliminate fire hazard. This information does NOT apply to energy-smart electric water heater with box on top of heater, or newer energy smart with electronics, or to hybrid water heaters, or heat pump water heaters with delicate electronic circuitry. Why it works like this: Ordinary electric water heater the...
