Why does a 4-prong plug melt in my Honda generator?
It happened twice already. I use this EP6500CSX generator as a backup, when the solar panels don't get enough light, and the turbine doesn't get enough water at the river. Is it bcuz the inverter spews some power back into the generator?
It is because you are CLUELESS about how to wire ANYTHING. Even if we were to ask specific questions about what you have done to date, YOU wouldn't know how to give answers that would allow a proper diagnosis without an ON SITE inspection.
Note: if you HAVE an inverter and a generator on the same circuit at the same time, THAT is proof you NEED a professional to fix what you have done wrong.
You're trying to connect the inverter in parallel with the generator? You can't do that. You don't have any circuitry to keep both devices in perfect synchrony, 60 Hz, phase locked, and exactly the same voltage.
You're lucky that all you did was melt a connector.
If its melting something is too hot
- What kind of fuel does a honda generator use? Hi, this may be a stupid question but i'm a city slicker planning on campong and i want to buy a honda generator, What kind of fuel does it use? Where do i get it?
- If i make a wire harness will it work with out pulse generator and icu on 85 1100 honda shadow? If i just make direct line from stator to rectifier to starter selonoid and coils will it be fine with out the pulse generator and the 2 icm/icu? I want to eliminate a bunchof stuff on it and i was wondering if that could go as well. It was a mess when i bought it i will figure it out if it must stay but i just need to know if it can go because it will be less of a headache if i can keep it going with out it.
- I need to find a part for my Honda ex1000 generator. I can't seem to find a part for a reasonable price or even the right part I have a Honda Generator and I need to buy a carburetor. I can find a lot of different ones online but I only find One for the Model I have. It is 80 bucks. I see a lot that look the same and I would like to know how to find one that is cheaper. I have looked for hours and can't find one that is cheap like the others. The part number is 16100-ZC0-015. Does anyone know how I can find a variety to choose from or do I need to get the honda brand carb?
