MEP-803A Exciter Field DC Voltage at 100% Load?

[kloppk]

Looking for someone to measure the DC Exciter Voltage in an 803A when running at 100% Load.
Measurement taken at the A1 Voltage Regulator across terminals 5 & 6.
Thank you in advance!

I would guess you are embarking on another modernization effort for the 803A. Go for it man. I love your 831A controller.

Hey Kurt I checked my 803a. My % voltage gauge reads low. I loaded it with 2 heaters for a total of 9000 W plus a burner on my cooktop [not sure of its rating] which should be 100% load. My gauge read just over90%. The DC reading was 10.4. let me know if you need a reading at the max output. Good luck. Ted

Sorry. Brain cramp. Percent rated current gauge not percent voltage

Ted,

Your reading at 90% load was close enough and reading 10.4 VDC. Was just what I was hoping to see for a reading near full load.
I greatly appreciate you taking the time to run the test for me!

And yes, I am working on another "goody" for the 802/803's

No need to thank me. This is just part payback for all the time you spent with me troubleshooting my 2nd MEP831A "ugly duckling" most of which was by message and not visible here. I should have posted everything here but in the heat of the moment kept on messaging. THANK YOU. Ted
