Will the MEG-ALERT harm any of the solid-state control equipment (voltage regulator, variable frequency drive, etc.) in my generator or motor control panel?
No, the MEG-ALERT tests between the “B” phase and the ground. Thus, there is no potential for high-test voltages on control equipment, unless they are connected between a phase and ground. On 240 VAC generating systems, it may be necessary to install isolating transformers to protect control equipment.
