Wanted to discuss the pro's and con's of a modification to a DRASH (Applied Technologies GETT Trailer actually).
The generator output is 208v 3ph. The ECU uses the same power.
Standard household is 110v and 220v 1ph. Some household A/C units will take 208V 1ph (mine will).
The compressor in the trailer ECU will only take 3 ph.
Marathon generators can be modified to other power options.
I'm considering repowering to 220v 1ph, then changing the compressor (the expensive piece) to support that power option.
This would enable backfeeding the power into the house from the main cable output.
Considering all the other electronics in the various control boards on this trailer, is this repowering even an option?
Power balancing is one of the current issues on the 3ph system. Other options while sticking to this trailer?
Granted, I could do this with a 10kw but staying on point to do it with a GETT.
