Electrical generator connection
6.9.1 General
On generators without a factory-installed switch box, install suitable
safety devices in a separate switch cabinet in order to protect the circuits
(power sockets) connected to the generator:
y Short circuit tripping characteristics: “B” characteristic
y Protection against overcurrent: as per nominal current
y The neutral conductor N must be secured.

an attached terminal box:

When opening the terminal box, make sure that the connecting wires of
the generator controller built into the cover are not torn off or damaged.

generator controller in the terminal box cover. The plug connector
is mechanically coded and cannot be reversed inadvertently. Do not
assemble the plug connector until immediately before closing the cover.

to introduce cables into the terminal box.
