GENERATOR
AND
LOAD
COMPATIBILITY
The
generator
must
be
fully
compatible
with
the
rated
voltage,
phase
and
frequency
of
the
connected
electrical
loads.
The
gen-
erator,
connected
electrical
devices,
or
both,
can
be
damaged
if
voltage,
phase
and
frequency
are
not
compatible.
NOTE:
This
manual
assumes
that
the
stationary
emergency
generator
has
been
properly
selected,
installed
and
interconnected
by
a
competent,
qualified
electrician
or
installation
contractor.
Once
the
installation
is
complete,
do
nothing
that
may
result
in
non-
compatibility
between
the
generator
and
connected
electrical
loads.
STARTING
AIDS
The
stationary
emergency
generator
may
be
equipped
with
one
or
more
starting
aids
that
serve
to
provide
quicker,
easier
starts
under
varying
climactic
conditions.
This
generator
may
have
been
mounted
with
(a)
an
engine
coolant
heater,
(b)
an
engine
oil
heater,
(c)
a
battery
warmer
or
(d)
a
bat-
tery
charger.
These
aids
are
powered
by
a
normal
(utility)
power
source
during
nonoperating
periods.
General
Information
ENGINE
COOLANT
HEATERS
If
the
unit
is
equipped
with
an
engine
coolant
(block)
heater
(Figure
1.11),
it
is
powered
by
a
circuit
normally
fed
by
the
utility
power
supply.
This
heats
the
engine
coolant
when
the
unit
is
not
operat-
ing.
This
action
keeps
the
engine
warm
even
in
cold
weather,
helping
to
ensure
quicker
starts.
Heated
coolant
in
the
engine
rises
continuously
drawing
cold
coolant
into
the
heater,
creating
a
constant
flow
of
warm
coolant
through
the
engine.
