(3) M40 and M40 A/P.
The 40-amp, 3-phase electrical distribution
system (Fig.
1-5) can be used as a stand-alone system with the following
provisions:
(a) The total load must not exceed 14.4 kW.
(b) The generator selected must be capable of supporting the
total load.
(c) Individual branch circuit output loads must not exceed:
1
14.4 kW for the 40-amp, 3-phase feed-through circuit.
This uses the total system capacity and no other outputs can he used.
2
2.4 kW for the 20-amp,
single-phase branch circuits.
Six of the 12 outputs, carrying maximum load, can be used at the same time.
c. Electrical Utility Assembly.
The M46 (Fig. 1-7) can be used with any
DISE/PDISE system to provide the user with lighting and 120 V ac duplex
receptacle outlets.
d.
Networking.
Figure 1-8 is an
example of one possible network
arrangement.
The 3-phase systems are used for networking with the following
provisions:
(1) The total load must not exceed the capacity of the largest
distribution center connected between the generator and the rest of the
network.
(2) The generator selected must be capable of supporting the total
load.
(3) Individual branch systems must not exceed the capacity of the
branch distribution center.
e.
Generator Selection.
Table 1-4 is a list of examples for pairing
generator sets with equipment.
Refer to FM 20-31, Electrical Power Generation
in the Field, for generator selection.
