Voltage Too High On Hw4000 Generator
I measured voltage at 240 outlet on Honeywell HW4000 generator. It varies under no-load, but is at 290-300 volts There is also about a 40 volt difference in the two 120 volt legs. I cannot find any reference to voltage adjustment in the operators manual. Can the voltage be adjusted?
