What This Code Means
Generator leads rubbing against metal; Cracking of stator output leads, protective sleeving, or insulation; Physical damage to stator output leads, protective sleeving, or insulation; Electrical imbalance; Electrical overload; Overheating on three-phase generators
Possible Causes
- •Improper routing of generator output leads
- •Total current in any one phase exceeds the nameplate rating
- •Uneven load distribution across phases
Suggested Actions
- 1Ensure generator output leads are routed out of the generator in a manner that prevents the leads from rubbing against metal objects
- 2Visually inspect stator output leads, protective sleeving, and insulation for cracking and physical damage
- 3Ensure that the total current in any one phase does not exceed the nameplate rating
- 4Ensure each phase carries the same load
