    MEP 003A, Engine Runs, But No Generator Output

    Just a quick question when you start the unit are you holding to start switch until the volt meter jumps to 120 volts and cycle meter jumps up to 60. these units require excitement by holding that switch until it starts generating power.

    Connected my MEP-803A the proper way as my home standby generator... Install pics...

    A very cheap way to see Utility power is back on is to pick up 120 volts from the utility side of transfer switch and install a LED light fixture. Like a very small night light that is on whenever utility power is on, if its off your on gen if its one turn gen off. I use this at 3 fire stations...

    NO Voltage or HZ reading on meters

    You should be checking voltage at load lugs,the convenience outlet picks up power from different windings and should not be used for any large load. check for voltage between L0 and L1 and L0 and L3 see if you get same readings or not. The main breaker will have to be on for this and remember...

    MEP-005A Over Voltage Problem

    It could I would use Electric contact cleaner. You can get it at parts stores. Also depending on weather you have a utility or a percise gen set will determine if it shuts off or not not all over voltage and over HZ safeties work on utility units.
