With the engine running smoothly check the no load voltage and frequency on the digital display. The voltage should be 208/240/ 480 AC depending on which model you have and a frequency of 59.5 To 60.5 hertz (Hz). If you have the proper voltage at the generator the next step is to check the voltage at the generator terminals in the Automatic Transfer Switch.
