connecting loads

Loads can be connected to the generator by the

Output

terminal lugs or the convenience receptacles (Figure 11).

Make sure to read the operation manual before attempting

to connect a load to the generator.
To protect the output terminals from overload, a 3-pole,

800A

main circuit breaker is provided. Make sure to switch

all circuit breakers to the OFF position prior to starting

the engine.

Over current Relay

An

over current relay (Figure 12) is connected to the main

circuit breaker. In the event of an overload, both the circuit

breaker and the over current relay may trip. If the circuit

breaker can not be reset, the

reset button on the over

current relay must be pressed. The over current relay is

located in the control box.

Figure 12. Over Current Relay

NOTICE

Remember the

overcurrent relay monitors the current

flowing from the

u,v, and W output terminal lugs

to the load.
In the event of a short circuit or over current condition,

it will automatically trip the 800 amp main breaker.
To restore power to the

Output Terminal panel, press

the reset button on the overcurrent relay and place the

main circuit breaker in the closed position (ON).
