Page 98
The current sensitivity of this relay is 30 mA. Improper handling of the relay may lead to unsafe condition in comparison with that does not use the relay. To ensure further safety, install a leakage relay for each load at the position near the load.
Page 99
[Note] The installation of a leakage relay on the machine can not become a reason for elimination of the need for the load side grounding. The load side grounding is indispensable for earliest possible detection of any leakage caused in the generator. The absence of such grounding requires any leakage to be detected by current flowing through the human body and is very dangerous because the sensitivity of leakage relay provided on the machine is not sufficient for detection of such current.
