6. Load Connections
6-1.Load Cable Selection
CAUTION : PROPERTY DAMAGE
Cable burnout can occur due to generated heat if the load current exceeds the
allowable current of the cable.
The voltage drop between cables is large if the cable is excessively long or small
resulting in decreased input voltage to load using the generator, causing
decreased performance, faulty operation and malfunction.
Select cable for use that has proper size and an allowable current for use, giving consideration to
the distance from the generator to the load using the generator.
< NOTE >
Select proper size of cables that ensures that the voltage drop across the cable
will be within 5% of the rated voltage.
