Using 240V AC may help with that.
We had trouble where the generator had way more load on one hot leg than
the other. It ran rough and stalled often.

The only reason you might have trouble is the air conditioning
starting load. I have seen them cause a generator to stall and die
before.

We're shopping for a generator for one of our larger POP's. The
electrical contractor is recommending this:
https://www.generac.com/all-products/generators/home-backup-generators/guardian-series/22kw-7043-whole-house-switch-wifi-enabled
This would be supporting 4 30A circuits (powering 4 APC UPS) that are
currently drawing about 30A between them (powering network gear and
servers). There is also one of the on-wall indoor/outdoor air
conditioners in this room - unsure what it's drawing.
The contractor also seems to think that this generator, with a second
transfer switch can power the remainder of the small building which
includes some lighting, a refrigerator and some small electronics
like PC's, etc.
Can someone who actually knows something about generators and this
kind of stuff give me some advice here? Will this generator support
our load and not fall over?
Thanks!
