OPERATION

GROUNDING THE GENERATOR

The National Electrical Code requires that the frame and

external electrically conductive parts of this generator be

properly connected to an approved earth ground. Local

electrical codes may also require proper grounding of

the unit. For that purpose, a GROUNDING FASTENER

is provided on the generator end (Figure 7).

Generally, connecting a No. 12 AWG (American Wire

Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding fastener

and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod

(electrode) provides adequate protection against elec-

trical shock. Be careful to keep the grounding wire

attached after connecting the stranded copper wire.

However, local codes may vary widely.

Properly grounding the generator helps prevent electrical

shock if a ground fault condition exists in the generator

or in connected electrical devices, especially when the

unit is equipped with a wheel kit. Proper grounding also

helps dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in

ungrounded devices.

WARNING:

Consult with a local electrician for grounding

requirements in your area.
