Since the topic has been brought up about the 240 volt side of the Champion open synch generators, it was mentioned that it appears the AVR senses the voltage on one leg or one set of windings and if you were to use the 4 prong twist 240 volt rated plug, you could split it down the road to 2 120 volt lines/legs.
I want to take my 110 volt 3500 watt Champion which is wired in parallel and rewire it. I want to employ the same 4 pole double throw switch allowing me to have 3500 watts at 110 volt and switch to 240 volts. I know that if I use the 240 volts I won't have a problem powering my well pump. However, if leaving the switch in 240 volt and use the 240 volt 4 prong plug, split it down the line to 2 110 volt legs, am I going to have 1 leg which is regulated properly and the other leg that is not?
