I believe sometimes its good to ground a gen when your putting gasoline in it to relieve static electricity into the ground . It will build up if its on wheels or rubber isolators and when you touch it it makes a slight spark that can ignite the fuel.
I had a problem one time in my horse trailer with a welded fuel tank in it and static built up and the trailer being on tires couldn't get it out of the metal. So I started researching and found out about it. Airplanes are really bad being off the ground on wheels.
