Risks associated with the power generator
It is strictly prohibited to commission an alternator, new or
otherwise, if the isolation is less than 1 Mohm for the stator
and 100,000 ohms for the other windings.
Maintenance and repair operations must be complied with to
avoid any risk of accident and keep the alternator in its
original condition.
All operations (connections or verifications) on the alternator
terminals must be carried out while the alternator is switched
off.
It is possible to start and operate the alternator if the
installation complies with the rules and instructions defined in
the manufacturer's manual (see installation and maintenance
manual provided with the alternator).
At this point, we strongly advise you to take the
time to read the safety instructions described in the
previous pages.

Electrical risks
Isolation checks must be carried out regularly.
The electrical circuit of the engine must be isolated from the
engine and boat earth.
Isolation problems can cause short-circuits or stray current.
Stray current can damage bushing or crankshaft seating and
may also cause radio-frequency disturbance.
The engine earth must be properly connected to the boat
earth as well as all the flexible hoses in the coolant and fuel
circuits.
Earth faults can cause corrosion in the pipes and engine or
propulsion unit components.
