NOTE: Wiring between generator and electrical appliances
1.
Allowable current of cable-
Use a cable with a allowable current that
is
higher than the rated input current of the load (electrical appliance). If the
input current is higher than the allowable current of the cable used, the cable will become excessively heated and de
teriorate the insdation, possibly buring
it
out. Table
7-2
shows cables and their allowable currents for your reference.
2.
Cable length
If a long cable is used, a voltage drop occurs due to the increased resistance in the conductors
so
that the input voltage
to the load (electrical product) decreases. As a result, the load can be damaged, table
7-2
shows voltage drops per
100
meters of cable.
