- The generator produces electricity that may lead to an electric shock while neglecting compliance regu-
lations.
- Könner & Söhnen generators were initially designed as an IT system with basic protection by insulation
of hazardous live parts according to DIN VDE 0100-410. The generator housing is insulated from the cur-
rent-carrying L and N conductors. The generator must be grounded in all cases, except for an IT system with
an insulated neutral wire and bonding. A grounded IT system requires the use of an insulation monitoring
device. Further details regarding the use of the generator in IT and TN systems can be found on our website
or requested from our technical support.
- All connecting the generator to the network must be made by certied electrician in accordance with all
electrical rules and regulations.
- It is not allowed to supply current from the electrical network to the generator when the power supply is
restored.
- Do not allow moisture in the generator. The water inside the device increases the risk of an electric shock.
- In the high humidity level conditions generator exploit is prohibited. Keep the generator in a dry place
only.
- Avoid direct contact with grounded surfaces (pipes, radiators, etc.).
- Be careful when working with power cables. Immediately replace it in case of damage, as damaged wire
increases the risk of electric shock.
- Network connection should only be carried out by a qualied technician
- Connect the generator to the protective ground before operation.
- Do not connect or disconnect a generator to electricity consumers, which are placed in water on a wet or
damp soil.
- Do not touch parts of the generator under voltage.
- Connect the generator to those customers only which meet the electrical characteristics and the rated
power of the generator.
- Store all electrical equipment dry and clean. Wires with damaged or spoiled insulation should be re-
placed. You should also replace worn, damaged or rusty contacts.
The generator and power consumers form a closed system, with elements aecting each other. This system
is physically dierent from the public network since it is signicantly aected by factors such as unbalanced
phase load and non-linear current consumption by power consumers that can cause damage to the gener-
ator and power consumers connected to it.
The device generates electricity. Follow safety precautions
to avoid electric shock.
ATTENTION – DANGER!
It is forbidden to connect to the generator devices which
can generate current pulses and direct energy towards
the generator (voltage stabilizers, devices with electronic
brakes, on-grid and hybrid inverters, etc.).
IMPORTANT!
The generator should be used as an IT or TN system
based on the application. Earthing and additional pro-
tective measures such as insulation monitoring or pro-
tection against accidental contact (residual current de-
vice) must be provided based on the application and the
system used.
IMPORTANT!
- Do not let the presence of unauthorized persons, children or animals when working with generator. If
necessary, make sure to fencing the working area.
- Please use safety shoes and protective gloves when working with generator.
