Generator output wiring Question

[pwilletts]

I have a generator with 3 out put wires...two yellow and one red....the yellow are designated DF1/DF2.in the diagram....field I suspect...they go to separate contacts on the VR....the wires are identical ..how do I know which is DF1 and DF2....does DF stand for Drop field?...does it matter which VR contact thye go to...I know this is vague

Have you tried to contact the manufacturer?

Assume you are referring to a stand alone alternating current generator, maybe diesel or gas engine powered?

If so, what brand and model? Is it a European model that makes 230V 50Hz or a US model that makes 120V 60 Hz or a US model that makes 240V 60 Hz?
