Generator earthing

Hi


I have a tractor driven Backup generator to install on a farm shortly and have a query regarding the earth spike. Does it need to go directly back to the MET or can I connect it directly into the generator earth terminal, the latter being Quite a lot simpler   In my case? 


thanks

  • I'm not sure I've pictured it all correctly, but I think you're suggesting gen -> 10m cable -> change-over-switch -> main incomer in DB - with possibly no adequate protection from shock or faults until past the incomer?
