Do you have the TM's downloaded for your gen set?
If so, have you read them a bit? The operators TM has some very useful info in it.
For instance, open TM 9-6115-644-10. Go to PDF page # 52, and read about grounding. On PDF reader page #53, you will see this warning.
Do not remove the Bonding Jumper between GND and N unless the Weapon System
, (Your house is in this case the weapon system) requires an ungrounded system.
(And yes, your house should NOT be hooked up to the gen set providing power, unless the bond is removed.) Failure to comply can cause death or serious injury to
personnel. Refer to applicable Weapon System TM for specific guidance on power and connection requirements.
4. Ensure that jumper is securely fastened,
(Or removed) between L0 and ground.
5. Using terminal nut wrench (Figure 2, Item 3) loosen terminal nuts (Figure 2, Item 1) on terminals (Figure 2, Item 2) selected in Step 2.
6. Insert ends of load cables through load cable entrance box. Insert ends of cables into slots of load terminal
studs (Figure 2, Item 2).
7. Tighten load terminal nuts (Figure 2, Item 1).
8. Secure wrench (Figure 2, Item 3) in bracket inside load terminal board door, and close door.
Open the output load terminal door, and find the LO and N terminal. The link between them is the BOND. There are many reasons to remove the bond, and I will let the others fill you in. Main reason is because the Law says so. And you do not want to kill someone you love, or yourself. The below link is to the TM's for the MEP-805A
Here are all the TM's you need to work on the MEP-805A, 30 KW Generator set. The TM 9-6115-644-24P, that is listed here, is an old, out dated manual. The current and most updated TM 9-6115-644-24P is not a manual released for public distribution.
