    Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

    Sporting a guess here, Its likely P59E16 for the starter burnout mod.

    Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

    No when its in start the regulator is being bypassed for the flash. The avr takes over when not in start

    MEP-831a Unbalanced inverters? 240 split mode, Leg 1 and Leg 2 have 20v of difference.

    Not sure on the inverter sets, but traditionally an unbalanced voltage is a neutral bond issue (neutral tied to ground) or lack thereof.

    Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

    btw the repair in the control cube warrants a smack with a blunt object. atleast wrap it in tape. *internal electrician is screaming*

    Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

    yea this looks modified. if I had to guess either the regulator is damaged or insufficiently sized and is not able to maintain the field.

    Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

    Sounds like the regulator is dropping out. Need to find out if its the OEM or aftermarket

    Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

    Its dropping out and not tripping the breaker? have you tried reducing the load?

    One regulator for the set.

    Mep-004 making no electric

    On the right side of the set, int the front compartment there is a terminal board, (only 2pairs) this is the connection for the field windings. check voltage here while you have a helper hold the switch to start.

    Mep-004 making no electric

    Bad practice. When they are producing power and the engine is at idle it puts alot of undue strain on the voltage regulator. This will eventually damage it. Its always best to avoid idling

    Mep-004 making no electric

    when you start the set hold the switch to start for several seconds and see if that gives you any power (these have an electric flash circuit and is a common mistake when starting) also make sure you have some throttle, DO NOT idle these sets. Further troubleshooting to follow once you try...

    Breaker help

    Thats exactly the component i was thinking about

    Breaker help

    I havnt worked on this specific breaker, but other large breakers (especially ones that are shunt trip capable) have a mechanical trip catch, sometimes these can get stuck ant it prevents the breaker from closing. Does it trip immediately after moving the handle to close?
