[Amps] Transformer Efficiency Question?

[TexasRF@aol.com]

It would be very interesting to hear why this might be true!?

I have a  6.5 KW 120 volt Onan generator.  I have been told that because it 
uses a  transformer as part of a regulator system that it is not recommended to 
 reconnect to produce 240 output.  

Question: What sort of  efficiency am I looking at to use a 120 to 240 
transformer?  Is there a  particular type that might be more efficient?  Would I be 
looking at 15%  losses?

Note:  This is an amps question, because I may run my 240  amplifier off the 
generator.
