Consumer generators are rated in starting watts so a 10 KW generator is more of an 8000 watt generator. The Military generators, when they say 10 kw they mean 10 kw and then some. Honestly the best answer is to take current readings and use that to figure out how big you really need.

Has your 10 KW portable generator been running the things you need? Or is it just a few pennies short of a dollar?

at 15 feet and 60 amps 6/4 is sufficent.

Really it depends on what outcome you want. If it were me personally I would pick the loads that must be powered and install them into an emergency panel. That panel would be fed by a transfer switch normally fed from the house panel emergency feed from your generator. you can use a contactor...

The basic physics is a spinning magnet in a coil generates electricity. using a fixed magnet creates a fixed voltage. so the new thing was using an electromagnet. the first use required brushes to get the dc power to the rotor to create the magnetic field. these are brushless, so the quad...

The adjustment would be for fuel to air mixture. RPM must be maintained to keep the frequency right. switching between natural gas and propane would require mixture changes as they burn differently. natural gas is already piped in as a gas so you wont get the freezing or vaporizing issues...

In that case with a smaller generator and unpredictable schedules the best bet would be a small panel for critical loads fed through an automatic transfer switch.

Worst case if you arent home to shed the load the generators over current protection should prevent an overload. I have my 004 setup for autostart and transfer, and I've helped hook up several for manual control, it all depends on how far you want to take it and whos gonna be operating it. Sent...

Things to keep in mind: Natural gas is like any other utility, they can be knocked out due to a disaster (we had it happen one year when a tornado blew a tree down and ripped up a gas line). Propane, can get expensive, and in an emergency can be difficult to find. I have a civ generator that...

There are some kits out there to do so.

I would be interested the voltage on the fuel shutdown solenoid. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Yes the MOSFET. They arent too many variations out there. There has to be a diagram in one of the TMs. As for what smoked it, its usually an overload or short Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

That should be an easy component to replace.

.

99% of appliances that require 240 will run just fine on 208.

Now that sounds interesting, I must try this. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Clearwater eh? Longwood here. If you need some setup help let me know. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Anyone else suddenly craving fruit cocktail? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

The 005 is a 12 lead head, so he did a retap to low zigzag. If memory serves the 805 is a 10 lead head and cant be changes the same way.
