Being no longer trusting that Energy Australia will supply power during heatwaves, I've acquired a generator.
The manual advises connecting an earth tag on the generator to an earth spike in the ground.
In the absence of this, since the generator is sitting on rubber-like feet, it would appear to be pretty well insulated from the ground, and running appliances off it would be akin to running them off an isolating transformer.
What's the objection to running it this way?
Sylvia.
