The TM shows it as being a 12 lead head. Generator heads like motors are pretty standard, and I've never seen a 10 lead motor. 3, 6, 9 or 12 lead is what you usually get. Not to say that they are not out there, but just not very common.

Jerry, First off, the load bank manufacturer/distributor you talked to pretty much hit the nail on the head about wetstacking. If you at least run the generator at load every now and then to get it to operating temperature and allow it to burn off the deposits left behind it will be fine. The...

Gary, rat4spd is absolutely correct...wet stacking can occur with an air cooled engine, but it will not happen as easily. It's just the nature of the beast, an air cooled engine will naturally run a little hotter than a liquid cooled one.

good point m16, but I'm also willing to bet that you don't use your tractors like that every single time you get them out too. The problem crops up a lot more because of prolonged usage like that...if you have a 60 KW generator that is running your 1200 sq/ft home, it's NEVER going to see...

Ike, Good points, but with the appliances, especially furnaces and probably some stoves, and even dryers, the control transformer inside the appliance will need to be rewired or replaced, or you will not have the voltage necessary for the controls of your appliance. This in itself can be a...

they are Wye connected...from what I've seen the military like to use the Wye configuration a LOT. 120/208 and 240/416 are both wye voltages as is 480/277. 120/240 and 240/480 are standard delta voltages. If you set the generator for the lower voltage of 120/208, you would indeed get single...

Welcome aboard Fred. I replied to your PM this morning. Although I explained it in the PM, I'll repeat it here for others who might have the same thoughts. First these generators are a "brushless" design. Meaning that use an induced voltage to excite the rotating field rather than brushes...
