Want to no, tolerate a set amount of bullshit when the alternative companys are limited? Yes to a degree Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

I have a 30 year old 004 with 38 Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Its entirely possible its accurate, sometimes they just never got deployed and sat in a warehouse for years. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

If you are that concerned, perhaps a buck transformer? Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Frequency is a function of rpm. So no harm there. Might be a higher current on the field windings but I wouldnt think it would harm it. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Id be surprised if 12 volt would spin a 24 volt starter fast enough. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

If you can find the electric components (starter, alt, solenoids etc) in 12 volt. Remember half the starting voltage is double the starting current. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

You can still get a delta service. The more common reason buildings end up with a delta is utility being cheap, open delta can me made with 2 legs of primary, where wye needs all 3 legs.

Its just a rating, Alot of motors are rated at 440 or 460 to account for service fluctuations. One plant I worked at ran at 500v during the day and 450 at night, this was because they were at the end of the feeder loop and when people were getting home the draw would be higher.

If you are gonna run a last ditch effort, why not bypass the safety circuits as well? Fire pumps are setup like this.

On top of that, most 480 loads will run on 460, they just draw a bit more current. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

If youre trying to hit 480 line to line then the lone to ground should be 277. So 265/460 is fairly close Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

So fun fact here, the limitations of a generator head (much like an electric motor) are mainly based on how much heat can be removed and keeping the windings below the damage temperature. We have a few motors at work that are rated at 2700 hp, but we are pushing about 4000 hp out of them because...

If it sounds like a controlled stop, it isnt a severe overload, those more or less drag the engine down.

Imbalance shouldn't matter, as long as you dont exceed the maximum

In a nutshell yes Outside the shell most residential is 120/240. Which is 180 degrees out of phase. There is 3 phase 240 (3rd leg is typically 208 to ground) these are either open or closed delta. Theres 3 phase 208 which is 120 degrees out of phase. This gets you 120 to ground and 208 phase to...

Stay safe and remember the 6 Ps. Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance

If all you need is an applied voltage to transfer, pretty easy. Other than that youd need a sense line to detect loss (and return) of utility Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

003 is pretty easy to automate of thats a route you want to go. Just something to think of Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
