    MEP-804B - New to me, I have a few questions

    I know the feeling. While I don't run my 802 like you do your 804, I do love having it around.

    MEP-804B - New to me, I have a few questions

    no, the 804 is a 10 wire gen head, you should read earlier in this thread where it's emphatically stated this model can NOT be reconfigured to single phase.

    MEP-804B - New to me, I have a few questions

    I think the OP is just using it in 120/208 mode and drawing 2 legs of 120V off of it. (L1-N, L3-N) To my understanding, if you set it to 240/416 and go L1 to L3 you'll have 416V, which is way higher than the 120V interters he is using will take. For 240 single phase you'd be best off wiring it...

    MEP-804B - New to me, I have a few questions

    I would say NOT to change it to the 240/416, because it would be double the voltage you are set for (the 240 is from line to neutral in this setting) in the 120/208 setting you will still see 120V from line to neutral, the same as the Kohler. If both of your inverter/chargers are set to 120V...
