    My MEP-803a experience

    Here's a pic of the inside of the Synchronization switch box. A lot more going on in there than I expected.

    PU798 (MEP-803a & M116A3) Followed me Home!

    are those 240v rated? I see them used in DC circuits all the time, great for hooking up a winch, but haven't seen them in an AC application before,

    My MEP-803a experience

    I went through troubleshooting 2-27.2 for the Voltage Regulator. Everything checked out except voltage adjustment potentiometer. On the generator on the stand, I got 4.85kohm max, and 4.89kohm max on the second generator. They were both consistent in stopping at those figures. Is the 150 and...

    FWIW, I found this video to be very informative on how brushless generators actually work.

    My MEP-803a experience

    what are the odds? both generators are exhibiting the same behavior. I checked them both while on the trailer and they both had normal voltage range adjustment. Now, both have the same lower voltage range adjustment. For grins, could someone measure the max resistance on the outer legs of...

    Something happened to my cute city chick. She entered my life as a boca raton tennis player. That was about 11 years ago. Yesterday, she butchered turkeys. I don't know how I did it.

    My MEP-803a experience

    after putting the generator on the pedestal, i went inside to get an idea for the noise/vibrations. I can't hear it in most of the house and can faintly hear it in the room it is immediately outside of. I'm happy with it from a mechanical aspect. There was some jostling getting it removed and...

    My MEP-803a experience

    Still need to wire it in to the house, drive a ground rod, move the fuel tank, and install some hurricane straps. Dropping it on the stand was more exciting that I was wanting. Shuttle shift tractor, low on hydraulic fluid and a bad check valve in the front end loader tilt. Just a little...

    My MEP-803a experience

    I saw in another thread referenced 6-10' rise for the Aux pump. I've got the stand built, similar to GlockFan's, but taller and using 2x6 for decking and top rails. Decided to move it around the back of the house. Pics to come.

    My MEP-803a experience

    spent about two hours disconnecting the two units from the trailer. All of the bolts came out very easily, far easier than I expected. Got the wires unhooked from the switch box and pulled from the front generator. Checked the fluids while I was at it, diesel is fresh, oil is fresh and full...

    MEP Power Distribution

    Do the NEMA codes even apply to a mobile generator? All of this will be mounted on a trailer.
