Generator Earthing (Neutral Earthing loop between other nearby Generators).

Jackson Jose

In one of our recent project. There are multiple generators and individually feeding to each MDBs. Consultant instructed to loop all the Generator Neutral between each generators. Our proposal to provide individual neutral earthing for each generators. 

Is it advisable to loop Generator Neutral Earthing (These generators are not synchronizing)

    Just to contribute towards the ongoing debate, several years ago, I came across a similar project. Similar~ location. Anyway the 1MW generators were not linked as your consultant mentioned, due to nuisance ! tripping ( previously mentioned) the other factor these generators were some distance apart! with only Two that MAY! have had the potential to be powering devices within the same building. Each power source and location were clearly segregated as reasonably practical. We followed local regulations which gKenyon mentioned are not comparable with UK regulations. The initial issue / concern also, the units were NOT synchronized. Unable to provide more details due to contractual agreement.
