Operation from a generator
As a guide we recommend that the load capacity should be less than 30% of the generator capacity, and
the generator rating should be 1.5 to 2 times the rating of the UPS, depending on the type of generator
used.
Caution:
Ensure that the neutral line from the generator is permanently connected to the mains
neutral line. Do not use an MCB or any other type of switch in this line.
Cable sizes
Use the following sizes of cables to connect the UPS between mains power, batteries and the load.

Most connections are made to terminal blocks, however some neutral and battery cable connections are
made to studs.

of protection.
