    Need some help getting my MEP006A Genset to run 480 Volts

    Problem with MEP006A So, I got into the machine a little more and I looked inside that special relay. Everything looked good (nothing looked like it caught fire or had burnt wires, it all looked clean and intact) so I'm at a bit of a stand still. I'm trying to figure out what else could be...

    Need some help getting my MEP006A Genset to run 480 Volts

    Thanks a lot for your reply. I don't know a ton about these....where about is that located? I'll definitely check that out. How much did it cost to replace all that if you don't mind me asking? Thanks a ton.

    Need some help getting my MEP006A Genset to run 480 Volts

    For me, it's difficult to understand what that means exactly. I do appreciate your response though. I do not know much about these machines, engines, switches, etc. I sort of fell into this machine (and another one). I don't have the other one any more unfortunately so It's hard for me to...

    Starter Switch for MEP-006A Generator So, I have not been able to find the starter switch that I need. It's difficult for me to try to make one work. Can anyone direct me right to where I can buy one? I have this link: 3pdt mini toggle switch - product summary - Bing Shopping But I...

    Need some help getting my MEP006A Genset to run 480 Volts

    Thanks for all the help. That's all I had to do and it worked great! One last thing: I ended up getting two of these generators but the other one needs fixing up a bit. Do you know where I can buy the starter switch for this machine? Thanks!

    Need some help getting my MEP006A Genset to run 480 Volts

    Voltage card switch over to 416 volts When I am changing the voltage card over from 120/208 to 240/416, I have left over, 3 nuts. I assume I should place those back on the open bolts, right? Thanks!

    Help on my MEP006A Generator ---- Switching the Voltage Card

    I am in the process of getting my MEP006A generator around. I have received help from several people (thanks for all the help offered!). My most recent comment was wondering how I get my voltage past 250. I was told to check out the voltage card. I did just that and it looks like it's set...

    Wow...you have been extremely helpful in your messages. Again, thanks so much for that. I'll definitely look into some of the things you've stated, with great detail. I know these can be very dangerous (especially for me --- someone who doesn't know the machines all that well). Hopefully I...

    Need some help getting my MEP006A Genset to run 480 Volts

    Thanks for the great explanation. I have not confirmed the voltage card (not sure where that's at exactly, but I'll do some looking). Can I ask where the "phases" are located to test them? I'm not too familiar with these at all. I'm a beginner....just learning. Lastly, what is the WYE and...

    I received a response from sewerzuk (thank you for your detailed response by the way. Very helpful and your info helped me get the generator working) last week in regards to getting my machine to produce power. It is now producing power but I cannot seem to get it up to 480 Volts (which is...
