    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Sewerzuk, "you have the set running about normal" - yes it was running at about normal op speed "You hold the start switch up in start and see no movement"- correct I held the start switch up between 10-20 seconds and saw no movement in either the voltmeter or hand meter. I tested the...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Sewerzuk, I did return all wiring back to stock positions and tied the jumper between T13 and T12. What I did see was the hertz guage moved up about three small bar increments I think around 48 hertz. I increased the RPMs and it did not move any more up when I returned the RPM's downward it did...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    define what you mean by "deflection" the motor did not labor or anything strange... Since I burnt up my multimeter two weeks (helping a friend with a home project) I have been without its services so I went today and purchased another. I cranked up my unit after moving the two secondary wires...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    No I didn't hold the start switch up but will do so when I figure out how to re-wire the guages. As I have read in other places once I cut the bar between T11 and T12 the guages stop working until some secondary leads are moved around then they typically will start working again. Prior to...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Sewerzuk thanks for your reply. With the weather turning pretty nice now I believe the threat of commercial power outage is remote. I can wait, there is nothing really pressuring me (except desire to get it fixed) to get this unit back up. With that said...you stated that you moved "2 of them...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Sewerzuk, I too am awaiting the MEP-006A. I have completed the triple to single phase converison. I cranked up the unit but found that none of the generator gauges work so I simply shut it off fearing I may be doing some damage to the unit. So I am excited to learn you are about to send out a...
