I was recently given a 19 YO Generac PP5000 5000 watt generator which was not working. After replacing the carb and 40 uF capacitor (self excited brushless gen-head no AVR) and dialing in the governor I am getting the following voltage outputs
No load 124.8 volts @ 62.4 Hz
1260 watt resistive load 116.7 volts @ 61.4 Hz
2645 watt resistive load 116.4 volts @ 59.8 Hz
4467 watts resistive load 101.9 volts @ 56.6 Hz
1/2 HP well pump 116.9 volts @ 61.5 Hz
This is about the best I could get it dialed in without over shooting the no load RPM of 3750. Do those numbers seem acceptable?
