Running mep802/3 with out batteries

[dstang97]

Can I slave my mep802 off my cucv with out batteries in the generator? I know your not supposed to do it with the older generators, but have not read anything about the newer ones. I would just leave the cables connected while it's running.

Two batteries are required, one on each side of the generator set. The batteries are electrolyte serviceable, lead
acid, 12 volt type, connected in series. After starting, the generator set is capable of operating with batteries
removed. A diode and a fuse, located behind the control panel assembly, protect the generator set if the batteries
are incorrectly connected.
