Hello,
I am new here and work as a quality inspector for a mobile trailer/tower company. I am currently working alongside of one of our electricians, but we cannot seem to get to the bottom of our problem (forgive me if the answer is rather simple). I am trying to grow in knowledge on the electrical side.
We are running a (60A, 208V, 3-phase shore power cord (using only two lines) through a buck/boost step up transformer (https://www.larsonelectronics.com/p...primary-120-240v-secondary-46-88-amps-50-60hz) to split-phase 120/240V (you can see the electrical schematic at the link below). This shore power cord is powered by a generator. All voltage readings are measuring correctly, however, when the two battery chargers are plugged in (on the same outlet - two 12V batteries to each), we see a spike in voltage in all the outlets and in the load center.
Please also keep in mind that this schematic and wiring setup was driven by our customer's electrical engineers. Is more voltage entering the system to account for the battery chargers?
