4.2 Selecting Cable

Select a cable with sufficient diameter by considering the maximum current to be used.
The distance from the generator to the load is also a determining factor.

If the current flowing to the load exceeds the maximum current of the cable, resultant
overheating may burn the cable. In addition, if the cable is too small in thickness for the
length, the input voltage to the load will be reduced which causes the load input power to
drop. As a result, performance of the machine will be reduced.

4.3 Connecting Load



Make sure not to connect the output terminal of the
machine with the commercial power source from
electric power company. It may cause an electric
shock, machine problems and possibly a fire.

Any source of high voltage is a source of potential LETHAL
voltage. Maintain all electrical cords and connections in
proper condition. Do not operate the unit in the rain, around
standing water or when wet. Always ground the generator
properly before operating
. Never allow untrained or
unqualified individuals to operate or remain in the vicinity of
the equipment when it is operating.

Never touch the output terminals during operation.

Pay attention that voltage of several hundred volts is

applied to the output terminal.

When removing or connecting a cable for a load circuit,
be sure to switch OFF the circuit breaker, remove the
starter key from the starter switch, then perform
connections. The operator must keep the key with him
during this operation.

When connecting a cable to the load, do not use a cable
with damaged covering or with inappropriate insulation.

Make sure connections between input/output terminals
are tight. Otherwise, it may loosen during operation
which may cause a fire or electric shock accident.


Select cable with sufficient diameter by considering
the load capacity and the distance from the generator to the load. Use terminals for
connections and make sure they are tight.

After checking phase type and voltage of the load, make sure connections are correct.
