Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
You don't need to add the resistors; their function is just to bring the meter readings and safety trip setpoints back into spec. Without installing them, the meters will read too high...not a problem unless you need the full rated capacity of the generator.I had one more question,
are adding the resistors to the CT a priority? not planning on running everything i have on the genset, just emergency back up.
The frequency meter will not read accurately until you have voltage; what you were seeing was not anything of note...Sewerzuk,
I did return all wiring back to stock positions and tied the jumper between T13 and T12. What I did see was the hertz guage moved up about three small bar increments I think around 48 hertz. I increased the RPMs and it did not move any more up when I returned the RPM's downward it did not change the guage. Plus Amp metered did display a minor quivere but no movement on voltage or percent power. I went an purchased another meter and checked the breaker panel I had hooked up...no volts coming to the panel nor on T1/T2/T3. I'm figuring I screwed something up just don't know where to begin...You coming to Arkansas anyway soon
Not sure I'm understanding your question? Are you questioning the fact that u you had to flash the field ?I'm a little stumped here. The gen ran fine before the single phase conversion. I just tried it out for the first time since I converted it. Starts up and runs fine but will not produce power in "run" on the gauges or at the convince outlet. If I hold it in "start" it produces power at the gauge and at the convince outlets. I have been looking around on here the past few hours but did not find any answers yet. Any ideas?
Thanks
