3.14 AC SIDE GROUNDING
3.14.1 AC Side Grounding Requirements for Generators
Small portable generators supplied with receptacles will often have the Neutral conductor bonded to
the generator frame. The frame of portable generator is normally isolated from the Earth Ground.
Larger generators typically do not have the Neutral grounded to the frame. It is to be ensured
that in these generators, the Neutral should be connected to the metal frame of the generator.
WARNING!
If a Generator is used to feed AC input, it is to be ensured that the Neutral of the
Generator output is bonded to the metal frame of the Generator.
MISE EN GARDE!
Si un générateur est utilisé pour envoyer de l'entrée CA, c'est de s'assurer que la position neutre de la sortie du
générateur est lié à la structure métallique du générateur.
3.14.2 AC Side Grounding of Typical Shore Based Installation
3.14.2.1 EVO-1212F and EVO-1224F: AC Side Grounding of Typical Shore
Based Installation
Refer to the Installation Diagram for Typical Shore Based Installation for EVO-1212F and EVO-
1224F at Fig 3.12.
(a)
AC Input Grounding:
The metal chassis of EVO
TM
gets bonded to the Grounding Electrode
(GE) / Ground Rod of the premises as follows:
• The metal chassis of EVO
TM
is connected to the Grounding Pin (G) of the AC Power
Inlet Plug (9)
• The Grounding Pin (G) of the AC Power Inlet Plug (9) gets connected to the Grounding Bus
Bar (G-B) in the Grid Electrical Panel through the grounding wire of AC input connection
• The Grounding Bus Bar (G-B) in the Grid Electrical Panel is bonded to Earth Ground
through the Grounding Electrode (GE) / “Ground Rod” of the premises.
(b)
AC Output Grounding:
The metal chassis of the AC load(s) get connected to the Ground-
ing Electrode (GE) / Ground Rod of the premises as follows:
• The metal chassis of the AC load(s) is connected to the Grounding socket (G) of the
GFCI outlet (10) in EVO
TM
through the Grounding Conductor of the load connection
• Grounding socket (G) of GFCI outlet “10” in EVO
TM
is connected to the metal chassis of
EVO
TM
.
• The metal chassis of EVO
TM
is connected to the Grounding Pin (G) of the AC Power Inlet Plug (9)
• The grounding Pin (G) of the AC Power Inlet (9) gets connected to the Grounding Bus
Bar (G-B) in the Grid Electrical Panel through the grounding wire of AC input connection
• The Grounding Bus Bar (G-B) in the Grid Electrical Panel is bonded to Earth Ground
through the Grounding Electrode (GE) / “Ground Rod” of the premises
