Section 7 Electrical Requirements
7.2 Electrical Connections
Several electrical connections must be made between
the generator set and other components of the system
for proper operation. Because of the large number of
accessories and possible combinations, this manual
does not address specific applications. Refer to the
submittal catalog accessory drawings and wiring
diagrams
for
connection
and
location.
Most
field-installed
accessory
kits
include
installation
instructions.
For
customer-supplied
wiring,
select
the
wire
temperature rating in Figure 7-2 based upon the
following criteria:
D
Select row 1, 2, 3, or 4 if the circuit rating is
110 amperes or less or requires #1 AWG (42.4 mm
2
)
or smaller conductors.
D
Select row 3 or 4 if the circuit rating is greater than
110 amperes or requires #1 AWG (42.4 mm
2
) or
larger conductors.
Comply with applicable national and local codes when
installing a wiring system.

rated conditions. The National Electrical Code

Use the larger of the following conductors: the same size conductor as that used for the temperature test or one selected using the guidelines in
the preceding footnote.

7.3 Load Lead Connections
Load leads being brought into the generator can enter in
a number of different areas. On generators 300 kW and
below the most commonly used is the bottom entry,
where conduit is “stubbed up” into the junction box from
below. Other methods include flexible conduit roughed
into the sides or top of the junction box. When using this
method, be sure not to block the front or rear of the
controller, as doing so will prevent access to it for service
purposes. See Figure 7-3.
On generators larger than 300 kW, a junction box is
mounted on the rear of the generator. Larger sets may
have oversize junction boxes supplied as an option or to
accommodate buss bar connections. Consult the
dimensional
drawing
on
your
unit
for
detailed
information.
