STANDBY POWER CONNECTIONS
The machine is suitable for temporary, standby or emergency power using the engine manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule.
The machine can be permanently installed as a standby power unit for 400 VAC, three phase, 21 amp service.
Connections must be made by a licensed electrician who can determine how the power can be adapted to the particular installation and comply with all applica- ble electrical codes.
•Take necessary steps to assure load is limited to the capacity of the VANTAGE® 500 (CE).
WARNING
•Only a licensed, certified, trained electrician should install the machine to a premises or resi- dential electrical system. Be certain that:
•The installation complies with the National Electrical Code and all other applicable electri- cal codes.
•The premises is isolated and no feedback into the utility system can occur. Certain laws require the premises to be isolated before the generator is linked to the premises. Check your
local requirements.
