    Gas and Water Line e.V.) and thus for the safe operation of mobile power generators. The VG12 safety distributor is suitable for the direct connection to single-phase power generators. The total load current must not exceed 16 A with respect to the plug of the input cable.
  • Page 7: Device-Specific Safety Instructions

    2.4 General safety instructions Bender devices are designed and built in accordance with the state of the art and ac- cepted rules in respect of technical safety. However, the use of such devices may intro- duce risks to the life and limb of the user or third parties and/or result in damage to Bender devices or other property.

    3. System description 3.1 Protective measures for mobile generators The VG12 safety distributor is intended for the practical implementation of the protec- tive measure "Protective separation with insulation monitoring and disconnection" specified in section 551.4.4.2 of the standard DIN VDE 0100-551.
  • Page 9: Functional Description

      The VG12 safety distributor has a compact plastic enclosure made of impact-resistant material. The Schuko socket-outlets are integrated in this enclosure. The loads are sup- plied exclusively via this socket-outlet after mounting and commissioning. A cable con- nects the VG12 safety distributor to the power generator.

  • Page 12: Installation And Connection

    4.1 Installation The cover of the VG12 must be unscrewed prior to installation. Mount the VG12 safety distributor with four M4 screws to the power generator. Make sure that the mounting parts have the required stability so that they are not destroyed by the typical vibrations of the power generator.

    3. Ensure that other socket-outlets of the generator are sealed. 4. Start the power generator. 5. Plug a load (e.g. an AC 230 V hand lamp) into a socket-outlet of the VG12 safety distri- butor. The lamp should light up.

    2. Plug a load (e.g. a hand lamp) into a socket-outlet of the VG12 safety distributor. 3. Press the combined test/reset button "T/R" of the VG12 for 3 s. A short time later, "tES" appears on the display for a few seconds.

    Of course, an insulation fault can also occur during the daily use of the power generator. Thus, all loads plugged into the VG12 are suddenly shut down and the LEDs AL1 and AL2 light up. What is to be done in this case?
