Generator Output Balancing (single 120 volt AC load)
2.0 INSTALLATION
NOTE: The ability of the T240 to balance the load depends upon the generators
windings and voltage regulation it receives on each leg. If the voltages are not
equal, or if there are other loads on the legs, then the currents in each leg will not
be equal.
To absolutely equal the load, disconnect the neutral connection of the T240 to the
generator. This un-bonds the output neutral from ground. This neutral should be
considered as a HOT wire and treated as such. This configuration may not be
compliant with the NEC, but will balance the load on the 240 volt AC side.
