How to use and maintain Weichai generator set during rainy seasons? Huaquan Electric Power made an introduction.
1. During the rainy season, there are more lightning strikes. In order to prevent lightning strikes, a grounding wire should be connected to the base of Weichai generator sets. Open frame generator sets are not recommended for use in the rain! Prevent electric leakage from injuring people. Especially for high-power units. Suggest installing a rain shelter.
2. When generating electricity for high-power appliances such as air conditioners, it is important to match the capacity of your own power lines, as overloading can easily lead to malfunctions.
3. Be careful not to touch or place wet objects on wires. Check whether the Weichai generator set cables are damaged and whether the buried cables are armored.
4. Before the rainy season, moisture-proof measures should be taken for outdoor distribution boxes, switch boxes, welding machines, etc. to prevent rainwater from entering the boxes and causing danger. Take measures to prevent rain and moisture from affecting the electrical equipment in the cafeteria, living area, office area wiring, and other equipment.
5. For outdoor operation of electrical equipment on rainy days, the insulation part of the operating rod should have a rain cover or use an operating rod with insulators. Maintain a safe distance between the human body and live equipment during operation, and be careful to place insulation rods that may be short circuited by the human body or equipment.
6. After rain, all electrical equipment and circuits of Weichai generator set should be inspected, and any problems found should be dealt with in a timely manner. For emergency power outages of distribution boxes, electrical
equipment, etc., wet areas should be treated to dry and restore insulation, and then the insulation resistance should be measured by shaking to reach the qualified level before operation.
