I found it, once you said it was there. I was using the Installation and Owners manual.

Thanks, JohnnyFry. I couldn't make sense of it. I saw the various windings and that really confused me.

I knew it wasn't the same as a modern inverter generator. Those have a box in the schematic...

That is the definition of a converter, not an inverter.

I'll have to dig into the wiring diagram of the generator to try and figure out what is happening. I'm still amazed that there was an...

I still wonder if a Yamaha 3000 can fit in an Onan 2800 generator case when you remove the fuel tank, wheels, and other things not necessary. 22"X16.3"X12.8"
