As does this one, I think. So my real question is whether or not the 60 Hz machine is synchronous or induction. Induction machines are much harder to turn into generators. And of course the presence of extra shaft length will be crucial as well. The 60 Hz machine is 220/440, so using it as a 120/240 generator will be interesting as well. Jim, The 125 KVA ones I had in the data center were induction start and transferred to syncronous run. Better ride through. Made by GE and some big German firm.
