7. Load Connections

7-1. Load Cable Selection

CAUTION : PROPERTY DAMAGE
 Cable burnout can occur due to generated heat if the load current exceeds
the allowable current of the cable.
 The voltage drop between cables is large if the cable is excessively long or
thin, resulting in decreased input voltage to equipment using the generator,
thereby causing decreased performance, faulty operation and malfunction.
Select cable for use that has sufficient thickness and an allowable current possible for
use, giving consideration to the distance from the generator to the equipment using the
generator.
< Note >
 Select cable with a thickness that ensures that the voltage drop across the cable will be within
5% of the rated voltage.
 Load Cable Selection Tables
(Ex.) If used voltage is 440V and voltage drops by 22 V.

7-2. Connecting Load Cables

WARNING : ELECTRIC SHOCK
 Always turn all the breakers OFF, place the Power Switch in the OFF position
and stop the engine before connecting / disconnecting the load cable to the
output terminal.
 Close the output terminal cover before operating.
 Do not touch the generator if the generator or casing or your body becomes
wet during operation.
CAUTION : FIRE
 Do not connect the generator output to indoor wiring.
