Yep old german saying smart late. I have not put the gen on a load yet. Hadn't a need. Kinda, of careful what you wish for
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
No it was a gal named Becky at Battlecreek.Was that Brandi?
Wow, looks like DRMO/DLA is being nice to mePeriodic assessment sux! I would say at least 2 months!

You can make your own breaker box/panel.I am trying to set up my 06, and thought about wiring through a curret panel. I would like to to have both 3ph as well as 1ph. The panel would have the breakers for both ph"s. Has anyone done this.
Any pickup truck can easily tow this generator. I have a 3/4 ton and it was not a problem.Nice gen i am thinking about on of those but i would have to get a m35a2 first to pull it home although i think about getting every thing that i read about that is od green i cant make up my mind.
Schwenk you don't necessarily need a deuce to pull a genset home. I used my 3/4 ton Dodge Cummins:Nice gen i am thinking about on of those but i would have to get a m35a2 first to pull it home although i think about getting every thing that i read about that is od green i cant make up my mind.
I have my MEP-004 run into a customized transfer switch. The switch was originally 6 circuits off a standard 240/120 volt generator setup. I changed it to be 3 sets of two circuits for three phase. The conversion process was trivial, a few new wires, and a proper three phase plug to replace the original single phase one. So when on utility power, I'm single phase, when on the generator, I'm three phase, reasonably balanced.I am trying to set up my 06, and thought about wiring through a curret panel.

I am highly interested in the transfer switch mod!I have my MEP-004 run into a customized transfer switch. The switch was originally 6 circuits off a standard 240/120 volt generator setup.

If there is some interest I can do an article on how to do the modifications to the transfer switch. The switch itself is available at Home Depot, and lots of online suppliers, it is manual and simplistic however. Since my generator set is not connected full time, an automatic switch was meaningless to me.
