Narrative:
Maximum thrust was used on takeoff due to rain. Shortly after, engines came up to full thrust, the left generator kicked off the line. First indication was a master warning saying 'flaps.' this indication was for a split second, followed by left generator and several other messages. Abort was done at or prior to 60 KTS. We pulled off runway 30L at taxiway J, made a brief PA announcement, and called maintenance. We reset the generator and it was operational. Maintenance advised us to start the APU and verify with them that the APU generator was operational. Maintenance then cleared us to continue the flight. We still landed at destination and blocked in on time.
