An H could have anywhere from 23 to 30 PTO HP, depending on the condition of the engine and whether it was rebuilt with oversize pistons, had the head shaved, etc..
These tractors powered stationary equipment all the time when they were front line tractors on the farm. Ensilage cutters, blowers, threshers, and even generators... For hours on end.
Heck, even in the field, they weren't moving fast enough to affect the cooling efficiency when they were doing real work (i.e. plowing).
As long as the cooling system is in good shape, clean with clean coolant, the tractor will run for days at its rated load just sitting there.
Think about this, though: In a power emergency, you want a reliable backup power source. Does this H sit outside? How much do you have to fiddle with it to get it running? How often do you run it?
If you can't rely on your H to fire right off, any time, any weather, then you don't want to depend on it for emergency power.
Around here, the big generator names are Winpower, Generac, and Winco.
