absturz

Hi .

I am restoring an RB44 and I’m looking for storage in Kent that would allow me to store and

work on it.

Nothing major , just the odd oil change , bit of painting and allow me to occasionally

de-mount the radio pod on the back ( I can make my own gantry if needed).

Can anyone help ? Photo of similar attached.

Thanks

Steve 

I wonder if this might work ?

https://www.cclcomponents.com/victron-adapter-cord-32a-3-to-1-phase-cee-plug-5p-cee-coupling-3p?gclid=COyI79CB_dMCFeoW0wodDKYDqg

I will have to check that it fits one of the output sockets of the genny . It would seem to extract one phase so does that give me 110 (115) volts ?

if modified by a professional electrician to tap 2 phases , does that give me 230 v ?

I'm still hoping to find REME / RE portable tools like drills or lighting to fit if I can.

Steve

Thanks for commenting Richard.

If there are no transformers available , can the tools still be found ?

What sort of tools ? Drills ? Saws?

Can anyone make up a safe adapter lead so that I can use one or two of the phases

to run modern 240v or 110v tools ?

BTW I think the handbook says 400Hz.

Thanks

Steve

I've recently bought a portable two-stroke petrol generator circa 1969

and I'm pleased with its overall condition and military look.

However , getting it to produce a useable output is going to be my biggest problem .

Details that I have are :

Generator Set , gasoline engine, AC 5KVA 208/115v 3 phase 400 Hz

Maker Air-Log

Part No. X2-6115-99-199-0598

Engine JLO L372

Two 5 pin star output sockets one rated at 25 amps and one at 16 amps

Believed to have come out of Wellington Barracks.

was there ever a splitter/transformer box that went with this to provide more useful outputs ?

can a modern adapter be used ?

hope someone can help.

much obliged

Steve

Gentlemen , I must apologize if I have caused you uneccesary research .

I naively believed that within PRC , NATO and Lucas part nos it would be straightforward

to track the vehicle down.

Thank you for all your help .

Steve

Hi Tony.

I took your advice but I can't seem to access Clive's Corner.

Is there another way to contact him ?

Thanks

Steve

During my wanderings I found some wiring looms in a scrapyard.

part no PRC 1234

NATO NID 5995-99-759-7492

Lucas p/n 51211029

new in bag.

I have no idea what they fit.

Scrappie thought they might be off a 24v LR ?

I only run a 12v 110 defender and a 24v 101 FC

Anyone know what they are normally fitted to ? An Internet search gets no results for me.

Cheers

Steve

Thanks Tony.

Yes 101 ownership -spares and petrol stations.

I've found more holy grails than I have exhaust manifolds !

As I mentioned, I found some wiring looms in a scrapyard.

part no PRC 1234

I have no idea what they fit.

Should I post this somewhere else ?

Hi ! My name is Steve and I live and work in SE London.

i've had a Series three SWB and I'm now running a 110 Defender

and a 24v 101 Forward Control.

i'm always looking for 101 bits.

i scour scrap yards and sometimes get lucky.

i recently found a Yard with LR wiring looms new in bag.

i don't know what they are for and they don't fit any of my vehicles .

if someone could direct me to the appropriate forum here I can post details.

Cheers

Steve
