Section 6 Generator Reconnection
6.1 Voltage Reconnection
The reconnection procedure explains voltage
reconnections only. Do not attempt to change the
frequency (e.g. from 60 Hz to 50 Hz) in the field.
The following instructions explain the reconnection of
12-lead generator sets. In all cases, follow the National
Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines.
Reconnect the stator leads of the generator set if a
different output phase or voltage is desired. Refer to the
following procedure and the connection schematics.
Refer to Section 5 for instructions to make adjustments
though the ADC 2100 menus when instructed in the
procedure. Follow all safety precautions at the front of
this manual and in the text while performing this
procedure.
Note: Order voltage reconnection decal 246242 from
an authorized service distributor/dealer and affix
decal to generator set after reconnecting to a
voltage different than the nameplate.
Accidental starting.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Disconnect the battery cables before
working
on the generator set.
Remove the negative (--) lead first
when
disconnecting the battery.
Reconnect the negative (--) lead last
when reconnecting the battery.
WARNING
Disabling the generator set. Accidental starting can
cause severe injury or death. Before working on the
generator set or connected equipment, disable the generator
set as follows: (1) Move the generator set master switch to the
OFF position.
(2) Disconnect the power to the battery
charger. (3) Remove the battery cables, negative (--) lead
first. Reconnect the negative (--) lead last when reconnecting
the battery. Follow these precautions to prevent starting of the
generator set by an automatic transfer switch, remote
start/stop switch, or engine start command from a remote
computer.
Hazardous voltage.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards and electrical enclosures
are in place.
Moving parts.
WARNING
Grounding electrical equipment. Hazardous voltage can
cause severe injury or death.
Electrocution is possible
whenever electricity is present. Ensure you comply with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrically ground the
generator set, transfer switch, and related equipment and
electrical circuits. Turn off the main circuit breakers of all
power sources before servicing the equipment.
Never
contact electrical leads or appliances when standing in water
or on wet ground because these conditions increase the risk
of electrocution.
Short circuits. Hazardous voltage/current can cause
severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or equipment damage . Do not contact electrical
connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or
repairs. Remove all jewelry before servicing the equipment.
