Generators providing a changeover supply In this mode of operation the generating plant may be used

to provide a full alternative supply to either the whole or part of an installation. Special attention should
be given to the changeover arrangements so that operation in parallel with the incoming supply is not
possible. Line and neutral isolation from the incoming supply should be provided. Where there is only
one generating set, the neutral point of its windings, the generator frame, all exposed-conductive-parts
and extraneous-conductive-parts should be connected to the main earthing terminal. This earthing
terminal should be connected to an independent earth electrode and, where appropriate, to the
protective earth terminal provided by the distributor.
