    MEP-802 and 803 Main generator tip.

    I followed kloppk's lead and mine have been working well on an 803 and an 802. Here is the data sheet: https://www.mouser.com/ds/2/54/ov14d-777765.pdf . The 14D151K is listed along with a bunch of others. Someone sharper than me in electronics will need to help you further.

    Do You Cover Your 803?

    Mine is outside. The radiator got packed with snow one time so now I cover the vents with sections of truck mud flaps to keep snow, ice, leaf debris out. I believe the covers (flaps) help keep insects and rodents out, too. Posts 28 & 34 show details.

    MEP-803A Brass terminal nut inserts.

    I read somewhere that you can use the 400Hz units to power heaters.....that the Hz does not matter with a resistive load. If so, you may be able to use it to heat your barn.
