Shut down generator set. Allow generator to cool to ambient temperature.
Open battery access door and disconnect negative battery cable.
Open output box access door and disconnect exciter field leads F1 and F2 from terminals 1 and 2 of TB8.
Set multimeter for ohms and connect between disconnected exciter field leads. Multimeter reading should be as
shown in TABLE 4-3.
Multimeter reading other than in TABLE 4-3, indicates open or shorted windings and exciter stator must be re-
placed.
Connect multimeter between each exciter field lead and generator frame in turn.
Multimeter reading of less than infinity indicates defective ground insulation and exciter stator must be replaced.
Connect exciter field leads to terminals 1 and 2 of TB8 and close output box access door.
Connect negative battery cable and close battery access door.
