Grounding
Ground the generator set. The grounding method must comply with NEC and local codes. Connect the grounding strap to the generator set ground lug, terminal GND inside the controller compartment. Generator sets are shipped with the generator neutral bonded (connected) to the generator ground in the junction box. The requirement for having a bonded (grounded) neutral or ungrounded neutral is determined by the type of installation. At installation, the neutral can be grounded at the generator set or lifted from the ground stud and isolated if the installation requires an ungrounded neutral connection at the generator. The generator set will operate properly with the neutral either bonded to ground or isolated from ground at the generator.
Various regulations and site configurations including the National Electrical Code (NEC), local codes, and the type of transfer switch used in the application determine the grounding of the neutral at the generator. NEC Section 250 is one example that has a very good explanation of the neutral grounding requirements for generators.
