The installer must comply with all  
applicable state and local codes.
Grounding the Generator
A grounding lug is provided on the generator 
mounting base for the purpose of grounding the 
frame and the external electrically conductive 
parts of this equipment to an approved earth 
ground and/or grounding rods where required 
by the National Electrical Code. Grounding 
procedures must meet local regulations.
Battery Installation
Standby generators installed with automatic 
transfer switches will crank and start  
automatically when NORMAL (UTILITY) 
source voltage is removed or is below an  
acceptable preset level. To prevent such 
automatic start-up and possible injury to 
personnel, do not connect battery cables 
until certain that normal source voltage at the 
transfer switch is correct and the system is 
ready to be placed into operation.
Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen 
gas. This gas can form an explosive mixture 
around the battery for several hours after 
charging. The slightest spark can ignite the 
gas and cause an explosion. Such an  
explosion can shatter the battery and cause 
blindness or other injury. Any area that houses 
a storage battery must be properly ventilated. 
Do not allow smoking, open flame, sparks or 
any spark producing tools or equipment near 
the battery.
Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely 
caustic sulfuric acid solution that can cause 
severe burns. Do not permit fluid to contact 
eyes, skin, clothing, painted surfaces, etc. 
Wear protective goggles, protective clothing 
and gloves when handling a battery. If fluid 
is spilled, flush the affected area immediately 
with clear water.
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The 
battery is capable of exploding.
