I thought to post this just in case someone here knows a thing or two about larger Generators .
I just bought one , 26KVA with a WEG generator that boasts 43 KVA. 3 Cylinder Detroit diesel engine .
It has an oil pressure gauge and a temp gauge and some sort of control box which has disappeared . It is about power point dimensions and about 3 inches deep with those plastic raised buttons on it.(I saw one on an identical machine)
What I seek to know is what does the control box do and is it a programmed microprocessor with or without radio remote ? Some of the wiring goes to a couple of seemingly 12 Volt auto relays . There is a warning on the outside of the enclosure that it turns on itself automatically so I suppose something senses the voltage on the line it is supplying and when none switches the motor on and starts generating power.
I would imagine it has a remote control somewhere on it but have not found that yet
Anybody have any experience or knowledge of these?
Perhaps someone might steer me to a manual ,workshop or user and/or a web site for the manufacturer or for an electrical generator type forum?
