Neutral Connections
The generators with a Wye Configuration usually have the neutral ground when the generator is installed. Grounding the neutral is for preventing damage to equipment.If the neutral wire is grounded and one of the phase leads becomes grounded, the excessive current will open a load circuit breaker. Also, the excessive current will cause the generator voltage to collapse. The result depends on the following items: electrical characteristics of the generator, type of fault and trip rating of the circuit breaker. An undervoltage device may be required in order to provide an adequate short circuit protection.There are some cases when the neutral wire is not grounded. An ungrounded generator neutral lead is acceptable when the possibility of grounds to the phase leads has been eliminated. An example of such measures is ground fault protective circuits. Ground fault protection requires the entire group of distribution circuits to be treated as a system. The owner should contact a certified consultant if a new distribution system is being developed. The owner should also contact a certified consultant if an existing system should be modified for the ground fault protection. Single Units
In a three-phase, four-wire system, the neutral wire should be grounded according to local wiring codes. Be sure to check your local wiring codes.5000/6100/7000 Twelve Wire Connection Diagrams
