With everyone's input I was able to better understand the gen and have it wired correctly. Good news the gen will output 40.6A on all 3 legs @ 208 , bad thing is that is 120% load and protection doesn't kick in . Now I need to come up with a way to vary the load via the 15kw heater to use as a...

Thank you
