tion in the IT network. A grounding by means of a grounding screw and a grounding spike is thus
designed to discharge static charges. For this purpose, connect the grounding screw of the power
generator to a grounding spike (grounding cable cross-section 16mm²). If other protective measures
are required, clarify them with a qualified electrician and have them documented in order to check
their effectiveness.
