Re: generator over voltage
Not for your current situation Justme but general information about matching generators to off grid setups. If you have a dodgy generator of any type or voltage you can put a fullwave rectifier on the output to give you DC voltage. It could be a three phase generator with a 3 phase rectifier or a 11...
