i believe i have one of these from the looks of it. do not see a model number on mine. how would i tell what exast model i have so i can get parts? i was told mine was a 25 kw when i bought it, but it has the remnance of whe winpower logo on the main case as these 30 kw do. same type plugs, mounts, guage, vent cover.
Amanda, it is neither. You model is power by a tractor. The tractor can either be gasoline or diesel. The horsepower at the PTO needs to be 60 to properly run your model.
I have a win power pto generator. The unit has 4 connectors. 2 mail pins, 1 female pin, and 1 wire grounds to case. I want to run my home, but I want to connect it correctly. Red plug to red female on unit, black pin to black female. white female to white pin socket, ground to case. Is this correct? Mark
Mark, please click on the “Plug Kit” under in the table on this page. Please call our Parts Department @ 507-357-8332 if you wish to order the plug kit.
I have an older model Winpower 50/30 PTCD my dad bought years ago to use on the farm. Serial #MO-4537-122. I believe that places it as being manufactured somewhere between early-mid 1979. I would like to be able to use it to power my whole house during hurricanes/ice storms, etc. I assume I can use the 240V/50 amp receptacle, to connect to a transfer switch. What size cable would I need to connect the generator to the transfer box? The main things I would need to run are a refrigerator, chest freezer, water pump for our deep well, and a 42 gallon electric water heater. And maybe a few lights, TV, WI-FI router, and small appliances like a toaster oven, or small microwave. We have a wood heater, so no electric heat needed. My dad and husband were both good with electrical hook-ups and wiring, but both passed away years ago. The generator has a large plug with 3 heavy cables on the back, I believe it is called an Anderson powerpole connector. The cables are about 10 feet long, but they are old and the insulation is cracked all around and I wouldn’t dare use them unless they were replaced. There are no clips on the ends, just bare wire, and I assume they would connect directly into a main breaker box if one wanted to use them? Just out of curiosity, how would they hook up, and what would you hook them to? Cables look to be about 1/0 size or so. I think I read that the port with the Anderson connector was something like 175 amp? My nephew borrowed the generator a couple of years ago, to power one of their tobacco curing barns during a hurricane. He’s pretty knowledgeable about electrical wiring and hook-ups, and I could probably ask him about these things. Thank you for your time, I was just hoping to get information on the generator if possible.
Viola, please contact a local electrician for new wires between a manual transfer switch and your generator. If you need a new plug kit, it is BP10097 and you can buy it directly from our parts department at 507-357-6831.
