Connect F+ to the positive pole of the battery. Hold the F- lead by the insulated portion of the lead wire, touch F- to the negative pole of the battery for about 5 to 10 seconds, then remove. Reconnect F+ and F- to the regulator. Repeat the procedure if the generator fails to build voltage.Click to see full answer. Likewise, people ask, why would a generator run but not produce electricity?The most common cause of portable generators failing to produce electricity is from the loss of residual magnetism. Generators work by moving electrical conductors through a magnetic field. Your generator does not have magnets. When the residual magnetism is lost, the generator will produce no power at start-up.Subsequently, question is, does a generator slowly lose its residual magnetism with time? Loss of residual magnetism occurs, when self exited generator, is not used for long time, due to adgeing or wrong connection(polarity (+/-)) of field winding. Loss of residual magnetism, could be built up, by connecting field saperattly for some time. One may also ask, what happens if I overload my generator? If your generator is not protected against an overload by using a circuit breaker, then the system will eventually overheat. Not only that but if the system is overload then you could have intermittent power which can damage any appliances directly plugged into your generator.Do portable generators have fuses?If your portable generator is running but not generating power, it may have blown a fuse or tripped a circuit breaker. Resetting the breaker and replacing blown fuses will easily solve this. However, to prevent this from happening again, try and work out what caused them to trip or blow before restarting the generator.
