    Trailer mounted Mep-831A

    I would say you got a great deal on it !!!! Now I'll be on the hunt for 1 as well !

    Trailer mounted Mep-831A

    ID say !! I have never seen 1? Very neat setup !! would like to find 1 in the east to use on my mep-831a

    What kind of trailer is that ?

    Now that's tuffer than pecker lips !!! Nice Job !!

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    It shouldn't engage the starter while running if all is good.

    You may have a DC voltage issue. Popped breaker. Blown fuse, ect, etc.

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    And are you making any DC voltage? . Flashing the field is easy. Start the generator. Get it up to speed. Then turn the starter switch as like your starting the engine. If all is good you will see the frequency and the voltage peg then stabilize. If it drops off then you have another issue.

    Did you try flashing the field ?

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Hi Jim it's not that it would hurt it the engine. It's that the air system the way it's routed thru that unit. You would be hard pressed to find a way to get in there to block it

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Both sugestions kill my machine dead . So you have some trouble shooting to do.

    You weren't running it in battle short were you ?

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Not impossible to do. But very hard on the mep-806a

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Another way if that doesn't work is in front of the switch is the throttle control. Pull on the throttle it will Rev a bit and if you go about 100 to 200 rpm higher it should go into overspeed and shut off.

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    It's under the door next to the engine.

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Try going to the left side and flip the manual crank switch to off or up it should kill it.

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Its pretty easy. Take a calculator . Add all your breakers up. OK you still with me ? now divide by 3 . and then divide your circuits' best you can to equal that number for each of the 3 panels. They don't need to be perfect. But do the best you can to divvy up the load.

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    If it were me I'd brake it up your circuits in to 3 even loaded panels. Feed them from the power company the same way your doing now but parrelel your imputs.then ID back feed them when the power goes out then do the A to B. A to C , and B to C and run the gen 3 phase. To back feed I'd run it...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    How many power panels do you need feed with single phase ?

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    If it's only the heater you want to run you could use it either delta or wye . If your going to use it like me then go low voltage and use wye set up like I am.
