GDP-5H — INITIAL START-UP/GENERATOR OPERATION

5.Read the voltmeter on the front panel of the generator (Figure 22) and verify that 240 VAC is present at the 240V twist-lock receptacle. Using an external voltmeter verify that 120V is present at the at the 120V twist-lock and GFCI duplex receptacles.

When the full power switch is in the 240

NOTE volt (down) position, you can take up to half of the rated power of the generating set at 120 volts from the GFCI duplex

receptacle and up to half of the rated power of the set at 120 volts from the 120V twist-lock receptacle; or full rated power of the genset at 240 volts from the 240V twist-lock receptacle.

When using a combination of dual

NOTE receptacles, total load should not exceed the rated capacity of the generator.

Connecting the Load

1.If small wattage power tools are required, connect them to the 60 Hz output receptacles at this time.

180 Hz Operation

1.Place the 180 Hz, 12.5 amp circuit breaker (Figure 23) in the ON position.

Figure 23. 60 and 180 Hz Breakers (ON)

5.Use an external voltmeter to measure the 230VAC output voltage on the 180 Hz twist-lock receptacles as shown in Figure 24.

When using the 180 Hz output receptacles,

NOTE the AC voltmeter on the generator cannot be used for monitoring of the 3-phase voltage.

Connecting the Load

1.If high-cycle vibrators are going to be used, connect them to the 180 Hz output receptacles at this time.
