6.8 Checking Generator Voltage at the Short Terminal Strip<br />

See Graphic: wc_gr003517<br />

WARNING<br />

Electric shock hazard. Only qualified personnel should conduct this<br />

test.<br />

A quick way to check the function of the generator is to check the<br />

voltage at the short terminal strip (a). If the correct voltage is present,<br />

problems with the lights not functioning will be associated with the<br />

circuit from the short terminal strip to the lights and not with the<br />

generator.<br />

To check the voltage at the short terminal strip, carry out the following<br />

procedure:<br />

6.8.1 Turn off the lights and shut down the machine.<br />

6.8.2 Remove the screws that secure the control panel cover to the control<br />

box. Remove the control panel cover and place it securely on the<br />

fender of the trailer so it will not fall when the engine is started.<br />

6.8.3 Place all circuit breakers in the OFF position and start the engine.<br />

6.8.4 Using the AC volt scale on a multimeter, measure the voltage across<br />

the wires labelled “1” and “2”. Also measure the voltage across the<br />

wires labelled “3” and “4”. There should be 120V±10% measured in<br />

each position.<br />

If 120V±10% is measured, the generator is functioning properly.<br />

If 120V±10% is not measured, check the resistance of the stator<br />

windings. See section Checking the Stator Windings.<br />

6.8.5 Measure the voltage across the wires labelled “1” and “4”. There<br />

should be 230V±10% measured.<br />

If 230V±10% is measured, the wiring to the short terminal strip is<br />

functioning properly.<br />

If 230V±10% is not measured, repair the jumper across the terminals<br />

where wires “2” and “3” are connected.<br />
