Thats OK, we can help you get going. For these parts we have a quick reference at the top of the forum: https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-802a-mep-803a-filters-and-parts.186068/ The water separator filter part number is right there. If you ever need to find the part number for an item...

Get TM number TM 9-6115-642-24 from the TM section on this forum. Page 39 shows the parts breakdown of the unit. Refer to item 3, fuel water separator Page 51 shows the fuel system schematic. Page 421 shows the water separator I don't know what else is missing but that part is a simple spin...

61.5hz unloaded is the standard setting.

I'm getting my "temporary" batteries setup so I can demo my Chevy Volt cells and get ready to assemble the new LiPo ones. Yours look remarkably like the Jakiper ones that I have.

Could you use some plastidip on some uncoated ones?

The most important thing is to get the generator electrically well bonded to the chassis of any vehicle it’s mounted to.

Lugs 1 and 3 are your hots in 240/120v mode. N and G are labeled. If you are using a panel that bonds the neutral and ground together, remove the bonding strap inside the terminal compartment.

@mlaxton, give us the rundown of the current problems?

What issues are you having? Has the unit ever worked correctly?

The new batteries for my system arrived today. 45kw/h in total. Each box is around 70lbs. Not fun to carry in the house! Next thing is to get them all opened up and tested before the return window closes in a few days.

I don't have the EG4 but I expect it is the same as most hybrid inverters where the same silicon that does the inverting also does the charging. Since they can only direct power in one direction at a time, when charging, the generator needs to be able to carry the load of the structure plus the...

I had considered mentioning that. I've experienced that with my off grid setup. Since most of my loads are single phase, any single phase pass through current dramatically reduces charging power. I have one of the chargeverters and it works great. My only complaint is the SERIOUS fan noise...

That is NOT the correct part number for S14. As noted before, its not a relay even though it fits the same base. Order the correct part from @kloppk and go from there. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-802a-mep-803a-s14-frequency-trip-switch-5930-01-396-2940-88-21091.200402/

According to one of the spec sheets I grabbed, the charging power is 200a which is around 10kw. That would be a good fit for a MEP803. Maybe the OP can let us know if this is the correct info for the model he has...

I should be getting 48, 314ah cells this week to switch out with my aging chevy volt packs. Not looking forward to tearing everything apart and rebuilding it but on the plus side, I should be in good shape for a long time.
