AUXILIARY POWER RECEPTACLES
The auxiliary power capacity of the Ranger® 305D
(AU) is 7.2KW of 60Hz single phase power protected
by an RCD (Residual Current Device) and 2 single
phase 15 amp circuit breakers. The auxiliary power
capacity in watts equivalent to volt-amperes at unity
power factor.
This model has:
1 Residual Current Device (RCD) protection (30mA).
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 grounded type plugs or approved double
insulated tools. The current rating of any plug used
with the system must be at least equal to the current
capacity of the associated receptacle.
STANDBY POWER CONNECTIONS
The Ranger® 305D (AU) is suitable for temporary,
standby or emergency power using the engine manu-
facturer's recommended maintenance schedule.
The Ranger® 305D (AU) can be permanently
installed as a standby power unit for 240 volt (60Hz).
Connections must be made by a licensed electrician
who can determine how the 240 VAC power can be
adapted to the particular installation and comply with
all applicable electrical codes. The following informa-
tion 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
Ranger® 305D (AU) and the power company sup-
plies must not be connected together).
Switch rating must be the same or greater than the
customer's premises disconnect and service over
current protection.
2. Take necessary steps to assure load is limited to
the capacity of the Ranger® 305D (AU). Loading
above the rated output will reduce output voltage
below the allowable -10% of rated voltage which
may damage appliances or other motor-driven
equipment and may result in overheating of the
Ranger® 305D (AU) engine.
