Guys, looking for a bit of help with a Generator.
My old man has some land with a small workshop in the middle of nowhere. He's bought a generator previously used as backup for a vets. I'm putting it at about 20-25 years old, it's lister petter and thats as far as i've got with it. Apparently it's 10kva, the plaque from the top of the genset with the model and general characteristics is missing and it comes with no manual. So i've not really got a lot to go on.
I was hoping that from the pictures someone maybe able to identify what it is? and what the controls do? all the 110v points are cut off inside, you can just see on the pictures.
There is no other electrical supply in the workshop, it will be used for lights/small welder etc, i've already run in the 80m SWA to the workshop from the generator house.
As i've not done a lot with generators i was hoping to find out what earthing arrangement i should adopt?
