40', 2 service elbows, 3 90s. I went with the 1" because the input on the side of the generator was 1" and the smaller size looked a little better on the wall. I did the install backwards though, I laid out the conduit, cut to length, ran the wire, then glued the pieces. Even doing it this...

Spent about three hours friday and three saturday getting this installed "properly." I got the trench dug from the generator to the meter in about two hours. I had previously purchased 1.25" conduit, which I decided to go down to 1" so on black friday, I fought the crowds and returned the 1.25...

10-4, I'm running further and wanted to be sure I'd have the capacity

If you are running this to your house, you must run a ground to the house, 4 wires total. That box has the ground and neutral bonded, going to the same block with just the single neutral returning to the panel(bare wire and coated wire going to block on the bottom left). I don't think that is...

what outlet is that?

I would add that a bumper on the rear would provide better protection for the generator and a set of fenders to prevent the tires from kicking water/dirt onto the generator would be worth looking into. Nice work BTW.

don't chase the bid because you have to have that particular unit. take your time and stick to your limit. Lots of these available.

Thanks! I found a DC-DC converter. The pump is a Carter P4070 I have laying around. Not rated for diesel, but I've read where people have done so without issue.

Can I pull 12v off of the batteries in parallel to power the fuel pump?

painter's tape and a pen works for me.

Would there be any benefit to running an electric fuel pump through a racor water separator to circulate in the 50 gallon tank? Racor 230R Filter Separator

I've got extra MOVs if anyone needs one, PM me your address and I'll drop it in the mail.

not that I offered much, but glad you got it sorted out.

thanks for the info, especially the UL rating, that clears things up a bunch.

all of the WIX filters are available on amazon.

I've googled every which way and come up short. What are the potential impacts of frequency fluctuations in power supplied to a home? I understand the impact on inductance motors, they will run slower at lower frequency and faster at higher frequency. What about everything else? Electronics...

I'll run it out this weekend if I'm around the house. Need to get more diesel, down to 1/4 tank.

mine also came with a new, still in a bag, output lug wrench that was deeper than the one in the generator. Not sure, but you may be missing the extension for the drum adapter.

Why not replace the handle on the throttle adjustment with a sprocket and use a stepper motor to turn the sprocket on the existing adjuster instead of hooking the motor directly to the arm? That would require much less torque, especially if combined with some gear reduction.

well shucks
