If it is a small 240 volts AC genset, then what do want an earth

A generator doesn't really need an earth point, and some generators

don't
really like being pinned to the earth, so you'd need to make sure

that the
metal work, if any, around the performance area was insulated from

earth,
but not the generator. Blocks of wood under the legs of any metal

staging
is usually enough to isolate the stage from earth.


truly, no, this is not a Good Idea (tm).
