    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    Thanks everyone, I will try to look at the information you gave but for the next few weeks I will have a medical issue that will probably stop me from being able to do much of anything, until I can Thanks again and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

    Guyfang, so at this point I’m assuming that everything is fine with The generator and I can use it in your opinion? now the question you probably new l was going to ask, is there anywhere on this sight or one that you can recommend to me that would show the proper way to set this generator up in...

    155mm, Would you be able to put the wire directly to the gauge to get the Hz?

    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    The gauge has moisture in it and the needle goes to the 11o’clock position and stops (hangs up), hadn’t even crossed my mind about using the multimeter, thanks. (Chemo brain). i think I will try that and put both of the AC units on the generator and see how it handles the load today as long as I...

    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    Ok, well will see what happens if and when it occurs again and look at the voltage to see if I has remained the same. i went out and put it under a load test and it didn’t have any problem but it was only a 25-30% load so tomorrow I will try to load it up as much as I can and then see what...

    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    I was going to put a 3 phase 5.5 ton AC unit that has a 35,000 or a 55,000 btu heater built into it. in my life what works one day won’t the next so I will go out and start it again this morning and see if it blows the fuse today and if not then we will hook up the AC unit and put it under the...

    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    Ok, I ran her for 2+ hours yesterday without a load and everything was fine she purred like a kitten but my gut tells me that once we put it under a load that the fuse will blow. the wire I was talking about was from the TM on how to check the under/over voltage relay, it is wire 137a and 141a...

    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    Well maybe 20 years ago I might have tried to jump the fuse but I’m WAY past that point in my life, do it right the first time or don’t do it at all because it will surely come back to bite me in the butt. I’m going to put it under a 65-75% load later today and see what happens but if the fuse...

    Needing a starter switch for MEP 805A

    Thanks, the fuse was blown, I will have to do a load check tomorrow but everything is working as it should be for now. should I be concerned about the fuse being blown? If so what thoughts do you have as to why? the unit has 27 hours on it since complete overhaul in 2011. thanks again bplas
