Step 3 - Ground the Generator
Failure to properly ground this generator can result in electrocution.
Ground this generator by tightening the grounding nut against a grounding wire as previously illustrated in Figure 3. A generally acceptable
grounding wire is a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire. The other end of this grounding wire should be connected to a
copper or brass grounding rod that is driven into the earth.
Grounding codes can vary by location. Contact a local electrician for information on grounding regulations for your area.
