8.4 Ground generator
Step 1: Check that no power consumer is connected to
the generator.
Step 2: Check earthing. Proper grounding of the genera-
tor prevents electric shock in the generator or
connected electrical equipment. Proper
grounding also prevents static electricity,
which often builds up in ungrounded equip-
ment..
