4 START-UP
4.1 Establishing the equipotential bond (02)
When connecting a single electrical appliance, safe operation is ensured by the design and function of the generator. It can be put into operation by an electrical layman, as no protective equipotential bond has to be established and no testing is required before commissioning.
If several electrical appliances are to be connected, the generator must be connected to an equipotential bonding bar by means of an equipotential bonding conductor. The equipotential bonding conductor must be an insulated copper wire of at least 2.5 mm^2 with mechanically protected routing or at least 4 mm^2 with unprotected routing. This work must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
The generator has no internal residual current device (RCD).
If only one appliance is connected, no residual current device or isolating transformer is required.
■ Each additional connected appliance requires its own external residual current device (30 mA).
■ Each additional connected appliance with increased electrical hazard must be connected via an isolating transformer instead of a 30 mA residual current device.
■ All appliances connected via a socket strip must have their own residual current device (30 mA).
Connecting the equipotential bonding conductor
- Loosen nut (02/1).
- Push the stripped end of the wire under the nut.
- Tighten the nut to clamp the wire end.
- Connect the other end of the wire to the equipotential bonding bar.
