Connecting the utilities
WARNING
The electrical connections must
only be carried out by specialised
personnel.
WARNING
The following requirements for use
must be complied with to prevent
risks posed for persons and
damage caused to the generator :
•
Do not connect utilities to the
generator unless the electrical
features are known or if these are
different from those of the
generator (e.g. different voltages
and/or frequencies).
•
The total absorption of all the
equipment
connected
simultaneously must be considered.
•
All the generators are equipped
with protections against over-
current, over-voltage and short-
circuit. In any case, do not
intentionally connect loads with
maximum currents that exceed the
specifications of the sockets they
are connected to.
•
Do not connect a number of
generators in parallel unless
equipped with the special parallel
board.
NOTE
All the connection operations of the
utilities must be carried out in
compliance with the guidelines
provided on the wiring diagrams.
4.2.1
Cable dimensions
•
The installer is responsible for the selection and
sizing of the cables who installs the system. Cables
with an inadequate section cause excessive drops in
voltage and the cable to reach hazardous
temperatures.
4.2.2
Cable arrangement
•
The set of cables used to connect the generator-
utility must be duly set up in a suitable channel or
passage, protected from making contact or being
crushed.
