7.14 Checking and filling of the oil circuit
Check oil and fill the oil circuit as described in the service chapter.
7.15 Isolation test
ATTENTION!
After installation, before bringing into service and
handover of the generator to the customer, an isolation
test has to be accomplished as follows:
1. Switch off all electrical load.
2. Start the generator.
3. Measure the AC-voltage with a voltmeter (adjust to Volt/AC) between:
a) generator housing and AC-Control box
b) generator housing and ground.
The measured voltage must not exceed 50 mV (millivolt).
4. Once the safety systems have been installed, they must be checked. If a leakage current relay (RCD) has been
installed, it also has to be tested in order to ensure that all contacts are connected properly. The individual
phases have to be checked against each other, and between phase and ground. An additional 4th phase (L1’)
also needs to be checked at generators with DVS winding.
5. If the generator is protected by a ground connection, it has to be ensured that ALL electrical devices must also be
connected to this „common“ ground (usually ground contacts are attached to the device’s metallic housing).
The electrical system installation must also comply with the hook-up requirements of the shore current grid.
Generally a leakage current relay (RCD) is sufficient for safe electrical operation; how ewer, this must be confirmed
by the electrical safety standard in the region where the system is attached to a main land power grid. The release
current of the relay (RCD) has to meet the installation circumstances.
7.16 Initial operation
After successful installation an initial operation has to be performed.
For this purpose the initial operation record has to be completely filled out by the installing expert. The filled record
has to be handed out to the owner.
The owner has to be instructed regarding handling, servicing and risks of the generator. This applies to the service
steps and risks mentioned in the manual as well as further risks which may arise from the specific installation and
the connected components.
Note:
The original initial operation record has to be sent to
Fischer Panda to receive the complete guarantee. Please
make a copy for your own documentation.
