  • Page 41: Supporting Floor

    6. Installation 6.3.1 Supporting floor For a correct support of the electronic unit and to avoid the transmission of vibrations, it is necessary to build a reinforced concrete platform (7) on the floor, isolated from the rest of the structure. The generating set frame must be fixed to the platform (7) with dowels or anchor bolts. The platform must have a length (D) and a width (E) greater than 400 mm (200 mm per side) with respect to the support base of the generating set (200 mm per side).

    6. Installation 6.4.3 Grounding with residual current circuit breaker or earth leakage relay Connection to a grounding system is mandatory for all models equipped with a residual current circuit break- er or earth leakage relay. In these groups, the star centre of the generating set is generally connected to the machine ground. By adopting the TN or TT distribution system, the differential relay guarantees protection against indirect contacts.
  • Page 43: Operation

    7. Operation Operation WARNING • Before starting the machine, carefully read section “2. Safety”. • It is forbidden to connect the set to the public grid and/or other source of electricity. Operating conditions 7.1.1 Power The electrical power of the generating set, expressed in kVA, is the available output power at the reference environmental conditions and at the rated values of: voltage, frequency, power factor (cos ϕ).
  • Page 44: Checks Before Start-Up

    7. Operation For cos ϕ values lower than 0.8, the alternator must be downgraded, because, at the same apparent power, the alternator should provide a greater reactive power. For the reduction coefficients, contact the Technical Support Service. Asynchronous motor start Starting an asynchronous motor by a generating set can be critical, due to the high starting currents that the asynchronous motor requires (Iavv. = up to 8 times rated current In.). The starting current must not exceed the overload current allowed by the alternator for short periods, gener- ally 250-300% for 10-15 seconds.
