4.8 Load Connections
4.8.1 Sizing Load Cables
Selecting the load cables, number of cores and diameter, based on its allowable
amperage and the distance between the generator and the load is critical.
Correct selection should be carefully calculated. It is recommended that there is a
maximum 5% marginal drop only for the rated voltage between the load and generator
via the cables. This should be considered when selecting the cable.
DANGER
：
If the load exceeds the allowable amperage overheating may cause damage to cables.
If the cables are too long, there will be excessive voltage drop. It may result in fire,
personal injury, reduced performance or damage to machinery.
4.8.2 Connecting Load Cable
The generator is ready for field connections. The cables should be connected to the
Main wiring terminals which are located inside the field wiring cabinet.
WARNING:

Before connection, the following precautionary measures must be taken

Connection must only be carried out by a licensed electrician.

Battery must be disconnected.

The control power switch must be set to the “OFF” position.
