Page 13: Operation
Operation Operation Determining Power Requirements Wacker Neuson generator Model GV 5000A is designed to operate single-phase, 50 Hertz appliances running at 230 VAC. Model GV 5003A is designed to operate single phase, 50 Hertz appliances running at 230VAC and/or three-phase, 50 Hertz appliances running at 400VAC. - Page 14 Operation GV 5000A/5003A Approximate Starting Power Requirements • Incandescent lights and appliances such as irons and hot plates, which use a resistive-type heating element, require the same wattage to start and run as is stated on their nameplates. • Fluorescent and mercury lamps require 1.2–2 times their stated watt- age to start.

Page 15: Installation
GV 5000A/5003A Operation Installation Place the generator in an area where it will not be exposed to rain, snow, or direct sunlight. Make sure it is positioned on firm, level ground, so it will not slide or shift. Position the engine exhaust away from areas where people may be present. -
Page 16: Generator Derating
Operation GV 5000A/5003A Generator Derating All generators are subject to derating for altitude and temperature. Internal combustion engines, unless modified, run less efficiently at higher altitudes due to the reduction of air pressure. This translates into a lack of power and thus reduction in generator output. -
Page 17: Use Of Extension Cords
GV 5000A/5003A Operation Use of Extension Cords When a long extension cord is used to connect an appliance or tool to the generator, a voltage loss occurs—the longer the cord, the greater the voltage loss. This results in less voltage being supplied to the appliance or tool and increases the amount of current draw or reduces performance. - Page 18 Operation GV 5000A/5003A Minimum Extension Cord Size Table Minimum Extension Cord Size 230V/1~/50Hz 400V/3~/50Hz Length m Length m Rating Cross sectional area of wire in mm Minimum Extension Cord Size Graph 1000 3000 4000 5000 2000 6000 A x m...
