Lines (14) function as sensing lines by tapping into generator output and connecting to terminals 20, 22 and 24 (AC Input) on terminal stp (8). The VRGF regulates voltage based on 1x vols per hertz or 2x volts per hertz. The VR3F offers an approximate 8 volts per hertz or 16 volts per hertz characteristic on 480V generators. "Wires 20 and 24, of lines (14), are used to provide AC power to VRSF on 10/12 lead generators and o step-down power transformer PT2 (4) 00 416 lead generators. PT2 will step-down the AC voltage to 240 VAC for excitation to the VRGF regulator.
