This thread is about MEP-002A synchronization. If you would like to know about what to expect when buying a surplus generator, you should go to the auxiliary equipment section here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/forumdisplay.php?55-Auxiliary-Equipment and use the orange button near the top of...
Go for it with an 002A. If this is a project, get a servo or stepper and a microcontroller and start programming. No doubt it would be fun, and when it's done, you'll have the ability to connect to your microgrid without having to get an expensive synchronizer. If I can help with programming...
Sorry, I do not. My experience is limited to the MEP-002A and 003A, but I'm sure others here will help shortly. I have a faint memory about one of the larger ones that has the ability built in, but that was to synch to another similar generator. I don't know if it applied to synching to the...
The MEP-002A uses a mechanical governor, so there is no way for the synchronizer to tell it what to do. You'd have to come up with an electric governor for the generator that's compatible with the synchronizer. Also, the regulator is not designed to take signals from the synchronizer, so...
