Special Risks of CO Near the Home
WARNING
Toxic Gases
Carbon monoxide (CO) gas can cause nausea, fainting, or death. Residents
can be exposed to lethal levels of CO when the generator set is running.
Depending on air temperature and wind, CO can accumulate in or near the
home.
To protect yourself and others from the dangers of CO poisoning, it is
recommended that reliable, approved, and operable CO detector alarms are
installed in proper locations in the home as specified by their manufacturer.
Protecting Yourself from CO Poisoning
Locate the generator in an area where there are no windows, doors, or other
access points into the home.
Make sure all CO detectors are installed and working properly.
Pay attention for signs of CO poisoning.
Check the exhaust system for corrosion, obstruction, and leaks every time you
start the generator set and every eight hours when you run it continuously.
1.10 Earth Ground Connection
The neutral of the generator set may be required to be bonded to earth ground at
the generator set location, or at a remote location, depending on system design
requirements. Consult the engineering drawings for the facility or a qualified
electrical design engineer for proper installation.
NOTICE
The end user is responsible to make sure that the ground connection point
surface area is clean and free of rust before making a connection.
NOTICE
The end user is responsible for making sure that an earthing arrangement
that is compliant with local conditions is established and tested before the
equipment is used.
