    MEP 805B slow to close breaker

    I ended up pulling the contractor and found major arc damage on the left most contact load side. Replaced the contractor plates and lubricated the selinoid. Now works pretty. Still slow to close when cold ( less than 70f ) but once it has cycled a few times it is fine. Used 3 in one light...

    MEP 805B slow to close breaker

    Had some nice weather today went out and checked the toggle switch, it tests ok. The K1 looks easy enough to get at, all the control leads are close to the case no easy way to get a meter in to them. with out taking it out of the set completely. I have played with it now, and it appears to only...

    MEP 805B slow to close breaker

    if there is no logic check (IE freq good, volt in range) then basically it is just repeatedly trying the breaker close toggle switch (3 position on the control board) UP to close, neutral , Down to Open It will always open on first try, just not close the reaction time varies, i can hold the...

    MEP-805b current draw

    I just have not ventured outside -10 air temp right now :) the diagrams i have been looking at indicate it comes from the BCT. I wanted to note that even though the CIM indicates a draw i was not seeing the effects of one, hence i think it is in the monitoring components. I am going to try...

    MEP-805b current draw

    They are on the wiring diagram I am not having a problem with draw down just the gauge shows a draw on the battery when none is present. i can start the unit up no problem, let it run for a little bit and shut it down. been doing it weekly for a few weeks and it has not given me trouble.

    MEP-805b current draw

    I cant find a fuse just the 50 amp breaker (CB1) connected directly to the output of the alternator the wire to the 50 amp breaker passes through the current transformer before going to CB1, Right after CB1 is the branch to the control box, then down to the batteries.

    MEP 805B slow to close breaker

    The question then is what to check to find out why it takes so long, some kind of logic check, bad switch?

    MEP-805b current draw

    Quick note, in multiple runs the issue still presents it self but i have not had to charge the battery, my guess is a sensor is miss-wired showing a negative draw on the battery when it should be positive that or the field in the CIM is mislabeled and that should read alternator current draw...

    MEP 805B slow to close breaker

    Hi, another question on my 805b my assumption is it is it slow to close, i let the unit run for 5 mins no load, then go to close the output breaker, pushing the toggle to close and nothing happens for 3 - 5 mins adjusting the frequency and/or voltages do not make a difference holding the switch...
