I mave a Southwire Surge Guard Model 34930 (for a 30 Amp Circuit) I plugged it into my generator (Westinghouse Model Wgen3600v) and got a message "Open Ground." I assume that means it has to be grounded. There is a ground button on the generator. How do I ground it? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards
Try the search function at the upper right there are numerous articles about generators and floating natural or open ground. Myself I don't use my surge protector when operating on my generators.
