Translation of the original operating instructions
3. The CPG 4000 INV generator is equipped with an
ECON switch (no. 15). This activates economic engine
regulation so that the engine power is adapted to the
consumers and the current that they draw. ECON op-
eration enables more efficient use of fuel.
4. Electrical devices and appliances need a large amount
of energy at the time of start-up. The following table of-
fers an overview of different device examples.
Attention!
Electrical devices and equipment, such as extension cables, sockets,
connected consumers etc., may be used only if they are not damaged.

Rated power: The power of an electric consumer that it can consume, which is spec-
ified by the manufacturer, is called as rated power.
Effective power: The actually used energy per time of an electric consumer during
operation is called as the effective power.
Starting power: The power consumption of an electric consumer that often increas-
es during the switch on or start phase is called the starting power.
Connection for feeding electrical power into existing networks shall only be
implemented by specialist personnel and after prior approval by the ener-
gy supply company.
The substitute generator is suitable for feeding electrical power into an ex-
isting distribution network only in case of failure of general power supply.
Measures must be taken so that interconnection is safely prevented after
a recovery from power failure.
Measures for safety against hazardous body currents
When feeding electrical power into an existing distribution network, the measures for
safety against hazardous body currents must be adapted to the existing safety
measures of the existing distribution network.
