WARNING:
GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
If this generator will be used only with cord and plug-connected equipment, National
Electric Code does not require that the unit be grounded. However, other
methods of using the generator may require grounding to reduce
the risk of shock or electrocution. Consult a qualified electrician,
electrical inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes
or ordinances to find out if grounding is needed in your situation before
using the generator.
When grounding is required, the nut and ground terminal on the frame are used
to connect the generator to a suitable ground source. The ground path should
be made with #8 size wire. Connect the terminal of the ground wire between the
lock washer and the nut, and tighten the nut fully. Connect the other end of the
wire securely to a suitable ground source that is in contact with the soil for a minimum distance of 8 ft.
The National Electric Code contains several practical ways in which to establish a good ground source. If a steel
or iron rod is used, it should be at least 5/8 in. diameter, and if a nonferrous rod is used, it should be at least 1/2 in.
diameter and be listed as material for grounding. If a rock bottom is encountered before reaching a depth of 8 ft., drive
the ground rod in at an angle of up to 45
°
. If the rock bottom is again encountered, the rod can be buried in a trench
that is at least 30 in. deep. In all cases, the upper end of the grounding rod should either be flush with (or below) the
ground or must be otherwise protected from physical damage.
All electrical tools and appliances operated from this generator must be properly grounded by use of a third wire or
be “Double Insulated.”
It is recommended to:
1. Use electrical devices with 3-prong grounded plugs.
2. Use an extension cord intended for outdoor use with a 3-pole receptacle and a 3-prong plug at opposite ends to
ensure continuity of the ground protection from the generator to the appliance.
Check and adhere to all applicable federal, state, and local regulations relating to grounding specifications. Consult a
qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as
to whether the generator is properly grounded.
