I recall saying I would post a photo of our not mu-ku-lar power plant (aka Genny the Generator) one of these days. Here's a photo of it shortly after it was delivered but before it was hooked up. It runs a lot in the house, but not everything at the same time! :) -- What do the Republican Party of the United States and the Muslim Brotherhood of the Arab World have in common?

It runs a lot in the house, but not everything at the same time! :) Does that fire up automatically when power goes out? If so does the power have to be out for several minutes before it kicks on? Reason I ask is that around here, sometimes a line gets knocked down or some such, and the power goes out for maybe ten seconds while everything resets, so I wonder how the genny handles that. You can set the genny to fire up automatically after a power outage, or you can set it to fire up manually. We also have momentary power glitches from the utility company from time to time. Typically, if they last at least 15 seconds, the transfer switch transfers the supplying of power to the generator and after the power from the utility comes back on, the transfer switch switches power supply back to the utility. As you might suspect, this can get a bit silly if there are a series of glitches from the utility, which sometimes happens. If you want to avoid that, there is an on-off-auto switch on the genny, and a main breaker, and a switch inside the transfer box. If you want, you can set the backup so it only comes on manually. It's a minor pain in the ass to do this. I wrote up a cheat sheet and had it laminated so I would have the steps in proper order. Usually if I am around during the day, everything is on manual. Compared to a larger portable genny on wheels, these are more complex and, unfortunately, a lot more expensive but...they are a lot quieter than the portables, and they burn propane or natural gas rather than gasoline. Those are real advantages. Also, it would take a really large portable unit on wheels to start up our heat pumps. -- What do the Republican Party of the United States and the Muslim Brotherhood of the Arab World have in common?

Actually, Bertie, I probably watch about one movie a week, and usually one from my "oldie but not yet moldy" collection. Last night we watched Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow, a movie from 1963 by Vittorio de Sica, and starring Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroianni. It's a great movie, but probably too sophisticated for your lack of taste. When I watch TV, it's either a news channel or one of the Discovery-Nature-Science-Animal channels. I used to watch a series called "The Closer," but, alas, Brenda Lee Johnson moved on to a new job and the series ended. -- What do the Republican Party of the United States and the Muslim Brotherhood of the Arab World have in common?

It runs a lot in the house, but not everything at the same time! :) You are truly blessed to have so many things It's air-cooled and cheap. If he spent more than $4K he got robbed. He most likely paid $15K for the genset and the install. Got to have a union landscaper, union carpenter, union electrician and what ever other union guys to install the genset. Naw. The two guys who delivered the genset were non-union Latinos who put the wood frame on the ground, filled it with gravel and then set the genny on top and leveled it. They told me the genset weighs close to 500 pounds. No landscaper. The trench for the gas line was put in by a laborer running a "ditch witch." He's an employee of the LP gas company. The actual gas line and hookups were installed by a licensed union plumber. He was quick and fastidious. The electrical part of the job was quite complicated because we have two 200-amp breaker boxes and we needed some circuits switched from one box to another (only one breaker box is hooked to the genny), and, in fact, all the wiring is rather complex. I've got some photos of the process on one of my SD cards. I'll post some at a later date. Took a two man crew of electricians pretty much a full work day to do the inside and outside work. Oh...they were both licensed *union* electricians, of course. Glad you asked. Oh...the snarly comments from you and others? No greater incentive is needed to NOT post boat photos or boating related posts. No need to feed you trolls. The genny is probably sleeker and more beautiful than your imaginary boat. Why is it that we have pictures of all your real toys but none of the boat? There is no boat. That's old news. There is however a ****load of nasty crabgrass.. |
