MEP-016D with SX-460 Voltage Regulator

[derf]

Went through the 016D and got rid of non-essential (to me) stuff. Kept the frequency meter, hour meter, and Volt meter. Replaced the VR with a $25 ebay SX-460. Wired for 120V single phase only.

You clean it pretty good inside nice job, could you draw up the wiring you did including to the VR......

Good job. I have started this on one of my MEP-002a units. So far I have the unit gutted and now I need to reassemble everything with the new regulator.

Here's a pic. I put two 20A breakers on the output, one on each duplex receptacle. Also, considering grounding one side of the output to the gen frame.

Also, SX-460 circuitry includes under-speed and sensing loss protection features.
