AUXILIARY POWER RECEPTACLES

The auxiliary power capacity of the VANTAGE® 580 is 20kVA of 60Hz three phase power protected by an RCD (Residual Current Device) and a 3 phase 32 amp circuit breaker. The auxiliary power capacity in watts equivalent to volt-amperes at unity power factor.

This model has:

1 x 3 phase and neutral Residual Current Device (RCD) protection (30mA)

1 x 3 phase 32 amp Circuit Breaker

1 x 3 phase 415 volt 28 amp

2 x 1 phase 15 amp Circuit Breakers

2 x 1 phase 240 volt 15 amp per outlet

Note: The single-phase outlets are from different phases and cannot be paralleled.

The auxiliary power receptacles should only be used with three or four wire earthed type plugs or approved double insulated tools. The current rating of any plug used with the system must be at least equal to the cur- rent capacity of the associated receptacle.

STANDBY POWER CONNECTIONS

The VANTAGE® 580 is suitable for temporary, stand- by or emergency power using the engine manufactur- erʼs recommended maintenance schedule.

The VANTAGE® 580 can be permanently installed as a standby power unit for 415/240 volt (60 Hz). Connections must be made by a licensed electrician who can determine how the 415/240 VAC power can be adapted to the particular installation and comply with all applicable electrical codes. The following infor- mation can be used as a guide by the electrician for most applications.

1.Install an isolation switch between the power com- pany meter and the premises disconnect.(The VAN- TAGE® 580 and the power company supplies must not be connected together).

Switch rating must be the same or greater than the customerʼs premises disconnect and service over current protection.

2.Take necessary steps to assure load is limited to the capacity of the VANTAGE® 580 by installing a 32 amp, 415 VAC three pole circuit breaker. Loading above the rated output will reduce output voltage below the allowable -10% of rated voltage which may damage appliances or other motor-dri- ven equipment and may result in overheating of the VANTAGE® 580 engine.

3.Install a 32 amp 3 phase plug to the triple-pole cir- cuit breaker using 6.02mm (minimum) x 4 conduc- tor cable of the desired length.(1 x 32 amp / 415 V & 2 x 15 amp / 240 V, plugs are available in the optional KA1373-2 plug kit).

4.Plug this cable into the 3 phase receptacle on the VANTAGE® 580 case front.

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.
