Protection by automatic shutdown as described in section 411.In practice, the following basic protective measures are used for mobile generators according to DIN VDE 0100-410 (VDE 0100-410):2007-06: These measures are explained in more detail in terms of their application for mobile generators in the new DIN VDE 0100-551 (VDE 0100-551):2017-02 Annex ZC. The most important references for protection against electric shock are the protective measures defined in the basic safety standard DIN VDE 0100-410 (VDE 0100-410):2007-06. Independent low-voltage power generation facilities that intermittently supply permanently installed systems which are not connected to the electricity distribution network.


Independent low-voltage power generation facilities that are not connected to the electricity distribution network.To ensure that the protective devices work properly, the following distinctions must be made in terms of application: The use of the earth spike in particular is a constant source of misunderstandings. On the one hand, this is understandable because of the many standards that generators must satisfy, and thus also various statements and assertions regarding the necessary measures. The range of application possibilities for mobile generators is often matched by the variety of discussions about the implementation of necessary protective measures against electric shock.
