Re: What amp draw ok on common?

Ran systems for 2 hours no problems removing the gas cap after first 30 minutes. Gas cap clearly states non vented. Will replace. Have no idea where to look for vent that may be clogged.

Re: What amp draw ok on common?

It seems the load is balanced perfectly. 2 ac's on each leg. Heaters balanced between legs obviously due to double breaker. Now that I think about it, the electrician showed me the main breaker which...

Re: What amp draw ok on common?

Ok. Leave wiring alone and back to square one as to why gen shuts down. New air filter & fuel filter. I'll look at gas cap for possible vacuum, checking vents as well. Diesel mechanic is of the...

Re: What amp draw ok on common?

Your machine will put out up to 87.5 amps to 240-volt appliances with no 120-volt loads, or it will put out 175 amps at 120 volts, half on Leg 1 and half on Leg 2.

Does this mean NO re-wiring...

Re: What amp draw ok on common?

Fuel draws from main tank. Previous post says going from 120/240 and 87 amps to 120 and 175 amps yields no additional power. This is one thing I cannot grasp. 175 sounds better than 87 to me. 50% of...

Re: What amp draw ok on common?

Just got off the phone with Norpro to order a manual. I guess it is worse than I thought. He said it is a 3 phase gen head and not single phase like I thought. That being said, max amp draw is now...

Re: What amp draw ok on common?

Using ratings for amp draw of xbox's and tv's but seems accurate. Current 240 leg (2 legs of 120) is evenly balanced. 21kw is peak and 20kw sustained. It is split phase 120/240 and the common only...
