    Hi after 30 minutes working generator frequency fails 50Hz from 400Hz and after 1 minute turn off. What’s the problem?

  2. gmg says:

    First off. You need to test the main output lugs with a multi-meter and not depend on the meters themselves. This is just to rule out bad meters. Odd that overheating affected the electrical, unless you meant to say that the electrical components overheated and fried. In that case, each circuit needs to be tested going to and from the meters.

    generator was running ok,during summer it overheated,after cooling,i started it and couldnt display AC voltage and FREQUENCY,Second time it displayed,third time it never came back again,help!!!!!

    Pretty easy if I’m not mistaken. Just change the voltage reconnection panel. Line the arrows up to your desired voltage. If that doesn’t work for you, you’ll need to buy another alternator for it.

    Hello, I bought a 1984 MEP-806A generator and it’s wired for 220volt and I need 480volt, is it possible to get instructions so I can rewire for 480?
