Hello all. First time posting and impressed with the help on this forum.
Also I started a new topic, This one is so huge it's hard to find anything in the tons of knowledge listed. However I thought better put on here also as my other might get overlooked. new topic is also in test issues.
I'm trying to re-wire a HF generator to parallel. I have tried many things I found on this site as well as others and I just cant seem to get it to work. I have the wiring diagram but not sure how to get it on this forum. If anyone can help I can e-mail it to you.
What I have tried was to switch the wires as explained in the 3000W Chinese Gensets Info. topic on this site. I do that and I get 20 volts across the two outputs. I also read that if you get 0 to 50ish volts to switch a set of leads. I didn't try this and I'm not 100% clear on which two leads to switch??
To try and explain without the diagram, I have 4 wires coming out of gen head. Coil 1 has Red and White. Coil 2 has white and black. Red and black are power and whites are neutrals. Coil 2 is the only coil that the AVR monitors.
So at the terminal block, I take coil 1 red and coil 2 white and put them together, and coil 2 black and coil 1 white and put them together. When metering across the two I get 20 volts.
I have been testing at the terminal block figuring if I can get it to 120 volts there then I will worry about the rest of the plugs and things down stream.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all..
