6. GENERATOR USE

The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious shock or
electrocution if misused.
Be sure to ground the generator when the connected appliance is grounded.
To ground the terminal of the generator, use
GROUND TERMINAL
a copper wire with same or larger diameter
than the cord of the connected appliance.
EARTH MARK
Use extension cord set with ground
conductor when connecting an appliance with ground conductor.
To identify the Ground pin in the plug, see RECEPTACLE page 63.
Connect a RCBO (Residual current circuit breaker with overload protection) of
30 mA ground fault detection and cut-off of less than 0.4 seconds at more than
30 A of output current, if you are using two or more appliance.
Follow the instructions provided by each RCBO manufacturer before use.

Improper connections to a building's electrical system can allow current
from the generator to backfeed into the utility lines.
Such backfeed may electrocute utility company workers or others who
contact the lines during a power outage, and the generator may explode,
burn, or cause fires when utility power is restored.
Consult the utility company or a qualified electrician prior to making any
power connections.
