ALTERNATOR AC LEAD

CONNECTIONS

See “Voltage Codes”. This Stationary Emergency Generator may

be rated at any one of three voltages, either single-phase or three-

phase. The electrical wires in the unit’s AC connection (lower)

panel should be installed according to the number of leads and the

voltage/phase required for the application. If there are any ques-

tions regarding lead connection, refer to the wiring diagrams at the

back of this manual.

Voltage codes apply to the type of stator assembly installed on a

particular generator.

FOUR-LEAD, SINGLE-PHASE STATOR

Four-lead alternators (see Figure 7.1) are designed to supply elec-

trical loads with voltage code “A” (240V, 1-phase, 60 Hz). Electrical

power is produced in the stator power windings. These windings

were connected at the factory to the main circuit breaker as shown

in Figure 7.1.

The rated voltage between each circuit breaker terminal is 240V.

The rated voltage between each circuit breaker terminal and the

neutral point 00 is 120V.

CONNECTIONS

3-PHASE ALTERNATORS

The Stationary Emergency Generator is designed to supply

3-phase electrical loads. Electric power is produced in the alterna-

tor power windings. These windings were connected at the factory

to the main circuit breaker with a “Y” configuration as shown in

Figures 7.2 and 7.3.

The rated voltage between circuit breaker terminals E1-E2, E1-E3

and E2-E3 is either 480V or 208V depending on the model.

The rated voltage between each circuit breaker terminal and the

neutral point 00 is either 277V or 120V depending on the model.
