Do not connect the ground wire from the generator set to a water pipe or a ground used by a radio system.

IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN CAUSE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE, SEVERE

INJURY OR DEATH. INSPECT AND MAINTAIN THE GROUNDING

SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE CODES.

CONNECTIONS TO HOUSE WIRING: Any electrical generator that is temporarily connected to a building or home (where the building is also supplied electricity by a local utility) shall be connected only by a competent electrician and only after the main service entrance switch has been disconnected and locked open. This will isolate the building's electrical system from the local utility's electrical transmission wires and prevent the hazard of electrical back-feed to utility service workers.

Any generator set that is permanently connected to a building or home (where the building is also supplied electricity by a local utility) shall be connected only by means of a double- throw transfer switch. This will isolate the building's electrical system from the local utility's electrical transmission wires and prevent the hazard of electrical back-feed to utility service workers.

DO NOT CONNECT THIS GENERATOR SET TO ANY BUILDING'S ELECTRICAL

SYSTEM UNLESS YOU USE AN APPROVED TRANSFER SWITCH OR THE MAIN

SERVICE ENTRANCE SWITCH HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED AND LOCKED

OPEN.

ANY TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT WIRING CONNECTIONS MADE BETWEEN

GENERATOR SET AND AN EXISTING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MUST ONLY BE

DONE BY A QUALIFIED COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN. IMPROPER WIRING/

CONNECTIONS COULD CAUSE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE, PROPERTY DAMAGE,

INJURY OR DEATH.

CHECK ALL NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODES AND ALL LOCAL CODES IN REGARDS TO YOUR SPECIFIC APPLICATION. ANY NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE OR LOCAL CODE WILL TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER ANY OF OUR GUIDELINES OR RECOMMENDATIONS.
