Generator Ac Voltage Connections - Westerbeke 8.0 KW-60Hz SBEG Operator's Manual

GENERATOR AC VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS
AC VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS
The frame ground wire (green) must be properly positioned
when changing the AC output configuration of the AC
terntinaJ block. For making connections to the AC terntinal
block, use terntinal ends for 114 inch studs that will accept
multi strand copper wire sized for. the amperage rating from
the hot lead connection. The frame ground green wire
connects between the neutral stud and the generator frame.
Generator Frequency
1.
Frequency is a direct result of engine/generator speed:
1800 rpm = 60 hertz.
2. To change generator frequency, follow the steps below:
Configure the AC terntinaI block for the desired voltage
frequency as shown. Ensure that the case ground wire is
connected to the correct terntinal block neutral ground
stud.
