This unit has the Changfa 195 mated to a Stamford genhead. The Stamford used is the BCX164B which has the Transformer Regulation, not the AVR.

I need the correct terminal locations for low voltage (120vac) output, i.e., hot and neutral. The unit came configured as 240vac which I can't use unless I loaded only one leg. The inside of the terminal box cover shows the strap locations to change from 240vac to 120vac but it is a best guess as to where to attach hot and neutral outputs to load. I'd rather not experiment.

Thanks!

    BTW, to my OP I figured out the low voltage connections. All is good.

    To @SatiskKumar : What are you needing? Who configured the device that the diesel is used on? Where are you located in the world? When I bought this unit it was virtually a brand new 20 year old generator. When Hardy sold these gensets the Changfa came with an OEM refresh kit of gaskets, seals, bearings and rings but no liner or piston. These are supposed to go 20,000 hours with standard maintenance.
