However, ifthe voltage and frequency cannotbe maintained within 1 percent oftheir rated values, the load must beadjusted to the point at which thevoltage and frequency can bemaintained within 1 percent of theirrated values for two minutes.CAUTIONItmaybenecessarytoreducetheloadtoavaluebelowtheratedkilowatt load for a short period oftimetopreventseriousover-heatingor damage to thegeneratorset if the aboveconditions cannot be readilyattained.
