I custom built mine. The manual says that pin 16 is charge excitation output (makes the battery charging alternator run). what error message do you get?

Sorry, Force of habit. Thats what my 004 has been dubbed by the residents and guests of my home. Mainly due to the size.

I put birtha in after Irma and we didn't have a hurricane outage for years after. All of central FL owes me a beer Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

I am glad you are in a safe space. Even happier you are prepared. Theres no rule that you cant do a simulated test.

I got one once with an unknown substance in the fuel tank. It was yellowish and when soaked into a white rag, it was like cracking a highlighter open. I am fairly sure it could have been seen from orbit. This is the same set that was full of kittylitter. Turns out the oil drain valve was a...

Make sure you cap off that yellow wire. Good find. Congratulations. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

The phase shift in a low zigzag works because of the addition and subtraction of the 3rd leg tapped to leg 2. (One rises as the other falls averaging two 120volt over 2 legs) The head is arranged where the phases are 120 apart but when leg 2 is extended it ends up 180 out. Simple way (but...

Yes there should be 4 wires total 2 hots 1 neutral and 1 ground

disconnect the small wire and tape it off. (assuming you are talking on the output board) neutral to LO a phase to L1 b phase to L3

In a typical 12 lead zig zag, the normal paralleled windings are still in parellel. This diagram parallels a leg a with a leg c I have my doubts of it actually working.

electrons had a party. It looks like one connection was loose and that makes heat. You're probably fine with just a replacement meter.

6awg should be the neutral and the 10awh should be the bonding jumper. I feel it's important to warn you that if this is disconnected from the house you need to reconnect that bond Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

eBay is a good source. I usually end up with reed style gauges. Don't forget to bypass the transducer

Line loss can be mitigated by larger wire or using a boost transformer. Fuel consumption though will be epic. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

My set is about 20 feet from the house in its own shed. Conduits are sealed with duct seal and fire stop. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk
