I thought they used them to power aircraft electrical on the ground when the engines were off. Most of the civ ground power units are all large like 70k and up.

There are 2 nearly identical regulators one is 60hz and one 400hz. The cheaper ones are usually 400hz. Aircraft ground power gens only. They are not compatible with 60hz gens. But I have heard of the 400hz regulators being modified to work in 60hz gens. The generator should have under and over...

I know I have the 60s. The 30s and 60s are marked as such. Are they interchangeable?

I think I have the 30k trc kit.

Well that answers why the regulator kits state you must use all components when changing the regulator. They should have put specifically why on the note.

I think the boards are covered in conformal coating. Bench work on that board isn't the easiest thing to do. I have a good solder station and have done this type of repair before. Still a good chance a trace will lift on me. Don't the diodes serve a purpose though?

The 805 and 806 plus the 400hz variants of the same wattage. Lots of them. Some type of protective component or components that could be added before the regulator would be a nice upgrade. The military is working on phasing out this series of generator.

Is this why a voltage spike kills the regulator? There is a mod that was supposed to be done to all the 30 and 60 kw gens it adds a fuse before the regulator.
