Generator Use - Honda EU26i Manuel De L'utilisateur

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,
GROUND TERMINAL
use a copper wire with same or larger
diameter than the cord of the
connected appliance.
Use extension cord set with ground conductor when connecting an
appliance with ground conductor.
To identify the Ground pin in the plug, see RECEPTACL E page 64.
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.
