Personal background: 10+ years as a moonlight freelancer in live concert production in addition to the two engineering universities. Have instructed more than one "licensed electrician" about production power from panels and generators. Two clarifications on the article: 1. A L15-30 is a three phase delta twistlock connector. The author means the L14-30. 2. "For example, if your ground wiring is not done properly, you may inadvertently put 200+ volts on 120 volt lines, immediately frying bulbs and electronics connected to those lines, and potentially starting fires." - What the author means to refer to here is accident lifting of the neutral connection. See this excellent thread (complete with demonstration video) on the professional sound forum: http://soundforums.net/lighting-electrical/4812-why-open-neutral-kills-120v-devices.html http://soundforums.net/lighting-electrical/4812-why-open-neu... If you're interested in a general understanding of generators and grounding, you can read a post of mine, also on the professional audio forum: http://soundforums.net/lighting-electrical/5216-running-generator-boat.html#post36225 http://soundforums.net/lighting-electrical/5216-running-gene... If you've got any specific questions on the topic of generators, I'm happy to give them a go.
