The engine is
¿
tted with an oil alert switch that will automatically stop the engine if there is a fault in the oil system.
Circuit Breaker
In case of accidental overload the generator is protected by circuit breakers, thus protecting the generator windings by limiting the
current drawn at the preset level. This type of circuit breaker offers improved protection to the generator and any appliance being
used.
However this type of breaker offers no earth leakage protection but will trip-in in case of a dead short that produces a current 25%
above the circuit breaker rating. The breaker has a delay action that allows current surges, often required when starting electrical
motors. The delay of the circuit breaker is designed so that if the current required is too great eg. too large a motor, the supply will cut
off.
Be careful to ensure that appliances do not exceed 15% of the generators rated load capacity for more than 10 minutes in the hour.
A substantial overload will switch off the circuit breaker. Marginal overload will not switch off the circuit breaker but will shorten the
generators service life.
Be sure that all electrical appliances are safe before connecting to the generator. If an appliance fails or stops, switch off the load and
engine. Examine the appliance for signs of malfunction.
Operating Instructions
GB
OPERATION
Electrical outputs will vary according to the model. Refer to the rating plate for full details and see the following section on component
identi
¿
cation.
• 110v AC 16 amp use yellow socket.
• 230v AC 16 amp use blue socket.
• (110v AC 32 amp use yellow socket, 5 kVA & 6 kVA only).
All our 230/110v dual voltage generators have ‘
À
oating’ windings and are not referenced to frame or
earth.
CAUTION
The third ‘earth’ socket pin of the BS4343 socket is connected to the frame. Ensure frame has
suf
¿
cient ground connection at all times.
CAUTION
It is recommended that all electrical connections, including earth, are checked and inspected at regular
intervals.
CAUTION
If installing a generator into a domestic mains supply for use as a secondary back up, this connection
must be done by a quali
¿
ed competent electrician to ensure correct earthing and installation to the IEE
Regulations for Electrical installations or your regional electrical regulations.
CAUTION
