    Test running the 803 in the house.

    Thanks ! How should I go about troubleshooting the percentage load gauge. I've tapped on it and loosened the connections and retightened. I had to make about 20 new connections when I got this unit because a rat had been living inside and chewing. Everything is working except the % load gauge...

    Got the 803 hooked up to the house for the last hour and have a few questions. First off my percentage load meter isn't working so I'll have to figure that out. I've trimmed my voltage and hertz. When I check amps across L1 and L3 I get 42amp on one leg and 36-38 on the other. Is this normal...

    Load testing MEP 803 A help

    I'll be doing a load test soon before hooking up to my house. The question is which way is better or does it matter? Run one wire on a 120v leg out to 4 outlets and another wire on the other 120v leg to 4 outlets and use heaters and such or to hook up on the 220v and test it that way or does it...

    MOV mod Fuse mod 803 A

    Ok Thanks. Is it best to run two 120V circuits out with multiple plugs to put heaters on or test it on 220V with something or does it matter? Just want to test it before putting it on my house. Then I want to buy your board once it's proven so I can remotely monitor it. Thanks, Jason

    MOV mod Fuse mod 803 A

    Is there any other mods besides the fuse and holder and the veristor that I need to do? The reason I ask is because I seen where you had showed a picture in another thread that looked to be a mod that didn't look like this mod. Maybe I'm just confused.....lol.
