It is important to consider the risk of ignition due to currents arcing across

discontinuities and overheating of parts in multisection enclosures of large motors

and generators. Such motors and generators may need equipotential bonding
jumpers across joints in the enclosure and from enclosure to ground. Where the
presence of ignitible gases or vapors is suspected, clean-air purging may be needed
immediately prior to and during start-up periods

重要的是要考虑由于电流在不连续处产生电弧以及大型电动机和发电机的多段外壳中
的零件过热而引起的着火风险。这样的电动机和发电机可能需要跨外壳中的接头以及
从外壳到地面的等电位连接跳线。如果怀疑存在可燃气体或蒸气，可能需要在启动前
和启动期间立即进行清洁空气吹扫
