Pitchet... Thread # 1026226787 may provide you with a course-of-action toward solution! Regards, Phil Corso

Pitchep... I suggest you search Control.Com Archives for "Generator or TG Hunting!" Regards, Phil Corso

Ron Brown... I did something similar! It eliminated that all too bothersome 2AM call from a neighbor telling me my door was open! Both, wireless and CMOS Logic circuits available! Phil Corso (cepsicon [at] aol [dot] com)

Vinue... Search Control.Com Archives for: 1) http://www.control.com/thread/1240942296 2) Direction of Rotation is the same as thar when operating as a Generator. Regards, Phil Corso

Ibamez... although sparse in substance, CSA's final comment about exciter instruments is correct! Typically, a generator can be "motored" for two types of events: 1) sudden loss of its prime-mover; or 2) inadvertent energization due to human or equipment failure. Your question is best answered...

CWW... Your explanation using "mostly" is "precisely" why I used "actually!" Phil

CWW's 1... Actually total xfmr-loss (omitting auxiliaries) is equal to core-loss (essentially fixed) plus load-loss (proportional to the square of load-current)! Regards, Phil

Thomas... I suggest you search Control.Com Archives for generator Hunting!" Regards, Phil Corso

Samuel... check out the April issue of "Nuts & Volts." It contains an article using a PIC for a "True- Reading Gas Guage!" The address is: www.nutsvolts.com/index.php?/magazine/article/april2011_Gravatt Regards, Phil Corso

Nic Javier... I am very interested in seeing your pictures! Also, provide some detail, that is, dimensions, conductor material, plating, bolt-type, etc! Regards, Phil Corso (cepsicon[at]aol[dot]com)

Pragnesh... I suggest you do a search of Control.Com Archives. Regards, Phil Corso

Chris... it might be more economical to purchase a motor, sized for duty-cycle, rather than one having a lower than normal No-load excitation current. Regards, Phil Corso

Samuel... how about an automobile Fuel-Sender Unit? Regards, Phil Corso

Arf... I suggest you search the Control.Com Archives for the Cube-Rule associated with Fans! Regards, Phil Corso

Joseph K. Amoah... what are the associated thrust bearing temperatures? Regards, Phil Corso

Panthripu... Wye-connected CTs will properly yield the three line-current values, Ia, Ib, and Ic! However, Delta-connected CTs will yield the three vector sums, Ia-Ic, Ib-Ia, & Ic-Ib, respectively! Regards, Phil Corso

Tushar... your approach reduces the probability of output success, doubles the probability of output circuit failure, and also doubles the probability of an unwarranted (false) trip! The above comments are based on my interpretation of your explanation. If you want a more accurate...

Shophermit... what is the current draw? Phil

Parish... Your question is a good one. The simple answer is, yes! A decrease of IR is indicative of a potential problem. Furthermore, unbalanced phase-to-ground voltages are also problematic, especially if the variation differs greatly from test to test! Do you have specific set of IR or...

Shophermit... if very old, then some Split-Phase, Dual-Voltage, Fractional-Hp motors can have two run-windings, and a single start-winding. When connected with five (5) leads, two (2) on one lug, and three (3) on another, as you observed, then it is wired for 220V, because the two run-windings...
