    Please recommend a transfer switch

    I assume so. It's 400 miles away. I'm at the mercy of the pictures from the people there.

    How to jump this 10 kw genset at the starter

    I've got a 10kW DC APU generator with a HATZ 26hp engine. I've jumped old chevys at the starter using a screwdriver, main positive post to secondary empty post. The partition around the main positive post on this one seems designed specifically to prevent that. Maybe there's a good reason for...

    Please recommend a transfer switch

    This is what I'm working with. Presumably I can move a couple of breakers from the upper position to a lower position and use an interlock like LITD linked. I'm obviously not an electrician, but I'm not clueless. I've wired in L14-50R welder access in the past, and I know enough to make sure...

    Purchasing my first Deuce

    Plan every red light ahead of time. Slow while downshifting, hit every gear on the way down. You should already be in 2nd before you even need to hit the brakes. Some people when driving a manual, simply go to neutral and get on the brakes to stop - don't do this. Plan every stop as if you...

    Please recommend a transfer switch

    She probably has 200 amp service. But the MEP802 obviously can't run all of that. Her furnace and water heater are gas. She's concerned about running the lights, the refrigerator, the furnace, and whatever other trivialities can be supported by the 802. We're going to go through her breaker...

    Please recommend a transfer switch

    I'm looking for a plain Jane mechanical transfer switch to be used to connect a MEP802 to a house for use during power outages. The primary user would be a >70yo woman, when the power goes out. I figure someone here has one they like...

    Does the m800 use the same caging bolts as an fmtv

    Suitable jack stands for m54?

    I squashed a 6ton rated jackstand with an unloaded M200A1 weighing less than two tons. There was a slight slope involved, and I certainly didn't trust it or get under it, but i really didn't expect it to fold up. The irony is that this jackstand had previously been used successfully under my...

    Install front winch will not fit with brackets

    What I pictured is the MileMarker hydraulic winch. My understanding is that MileMarker makes the entire mounting kit available. My understanding is that the brackets and such for the electric winches are not compatible with these.
