Remove the existing one and order a cross reference using the part number on it. It's difficult to tell which one you have based on the year, the size of the unit, and how it was engineered.
It was a perfect match for my 5 in every way. I'm only familiar with the 5 KW models; I'm not sure about the 20 KW ones.
The voltage that the generator produces as an output. Set the voltage to match the voltage of your utilities. It's simple to set up. This is a replacement part; if your generator already has one, do not purchase this.
Yes, your home standby generator and the voltage regulator are compatible.

It took about three hours. To get it right, you'll need four full turns of the adjusting screw.
Siemens/Generac machines from the 1970s and 1980s. You'll have to fiddle with the potentiometer to get the voltage just right, as others have mentioned. You'll need a jeweler's flat head screwdriver to adjust the potentiometer because it's extremely small. Similarly to others, ours arrived with a low shipping weight. It took about 2 full turns to go from 90v to 118v. We didn't do anything fancy to test; we simply switched to generator power, plugged a volt meter into a house socket, and ran back and forth between there and the generator until we got the desired volts. What's up?.
The old one had burned out, so I replaced it with this one, and the generator was churning out the amps to keep my off-grid home running. system with grid batteries It takes about 45 minutes to replace the capacitor, and remember to set the voltage with the tiny (and I mean tiny) potentiometer screw. To accomplish this, rotate the screw clockwise.
It's an exact duplicate of the previous one. There were no issues during the installation or connection process. The previous one had a 1-star rating. turn pot; This one is rated ten out of ten. By turning the pot, you can make the voltage adjustment a little easier.
The item is original equipment manufacturer (OEM), and it fits perfectly. After that, I simply adjusted the pot until the output reached 120 volts. br>br>I would have given it five stars if it hadn't come in an unsealed box with little protection. It should have been double boxed or at the very least sealed for such an expensive electronic component.
Regulator arrived promptly and in good condition, with free shipping. My old regulator produced a lower voltage output; Installed a 2006 Generac 13kw generator. Shut down the unit and spent time cleaning, removing rust, and painting the battery. Before removing the old regulator, I used a sharpie to mark the leads to ensure the new one was properly connected. With a multi tester plugged into a wall outlet and a jeweler's screw driver, this is a two-person job. The voltage required by the regulator was far lower than what was sent. Before starting the generator, check the utility voltage to make sure it's close to what it should be. Turn the screw counterclockwise until the desired voltage is reached. I was able to avoid making a service call.
It was the best price, it fit, it worked, it was quick and easy to install (about 30 minutes from start to finish), and it has lasted nearly 40 hours since it was installed on 17th. No issues with a 5kw generator.
