Fixed diesel generator earthing

D4G over 4 years ago

Hi folks, i'm after your knowledge again!

I have a 184KW diesel generator which is to supply a test bay for testing machines to big for the building supply. The generated supply will not be used/connected to the building supply.

Would the earthing arrangements be as TT with a rod at the generator connected to the neutral/star connection?

Thanks in advance ?

Thanks for the speedy replies gents.

Its an old unit with MCCB in the main panel, does this need to be RCD protected or is RCD protection at the switch gear in the test bay fine?
