You better make sure that's not a -24 system. And yeah, don't know why
you'd need a transfer switch in a DC application. Those old telco
alternator-rectifier DC generators are designed to monitor battery
voltage and start up at the right time. They're parallel operation that
charges the batts and runs the load until utility comes back. If you
look hard enough, I'm sure you can still find the compact -48 Kohler's
that run on propane or NG. I think Vz used a lot of them.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] DC Generators?
We are getting one from an auction that came off an old cricket site.
Its output is 27.6v @ 6Kw
I am using forrest's Generator control to help with a homemade
transfer switch.
The configuration will be a little complex on doing this but I can
make it work with little effort.

Pretty easy to make DC out of AC.� A true DC generator probably has
brushes and a commutator. Not something you really want.
I imagine anything you are likely to find is probably AC that is
rectified.

I think they make them in 12,24 and 48V.
