Install the generator set, in its protective enclosure, 
outdoors, where adequate cooling and ventilating air 
is always available (Figure 1.9). Consider these fac-
tors:

The installation of the generator must comply 

strictly with NFPA 37, NFPA 54, NFPA 58, and 
NFPA 70 standards.

Install the unit where air inlet and outlet open-

ings will not become obstructed by leaves, grass, 
snow, etc.. If prevailing winds will cause blowing 
or drifting, consider using a windbreak to protect 
the unit.

Install the generator on high ground where water 

levels will not rise and endanger it.

Allow sufficient room on all sides of the generator 

for maintenance and servicing. This unit must be 
installed in accordance with current applicable 
NFPA 37 and NFPA 70 standards; as well as any 
other federal, state and local codes for minimum 
distances from other structures. DO NOT install 
under wooden decks or structures.

Install the unit where rain gutter down spouts, 

roof fun-off, landscape irrigation, water sprinklers 
or sump pump discharge does not flood the unit 
or spray the enclosure, including any air inlet or 
outlet openings.

Install the unit where services will not be affected 

or obstructed, including concealed, underground 
or covered services such as electrical, fuel, phone, 
air conditioning or irrigation.

Where strong prevailing winds blow from one 

direction, face the generator air inlet openings to 
the prevailing winds.
