Three Phase Generator.

Zoomup

A local man is disconnecting from the grid due to rising costs. He has bought an AG-50 50kVA three phase diesel generator. The maker is Fuj[an Yihua Electrical Machinery Co. Ltd. The generator will be used for electric showers and a washing machine on a camping site. What advice can you provide for me so that all goes well with the installation. The certificate of conformity states 380 Volt, p.f. 0.8, 76 Amp. 50Hz.

Is foundation earthing a good idea whilst the concrete slab is being made?

Thanks,

Z.

    If there are going to be several people using showers, it makes more sense to use a big water tank with an immersion heater, rather than instant electric showers.

    The electric showers are already installed, previously grid powered.  The generator is only going to be used for set periods of time after the "hello campers the showers are available" signal is given. So it won't be run for extended periods. I can't see the system working myself, the site owner has not done his homework before buying the generator.
