Hi guys, just installed a Pramac P11000 11 KVA generator at the side of my garage in a brick outbuilding.
I have fed armoured cables through the wall and into my side of the garage to feed a new consumer unit on the wall.
I also ran 2x 3 core 2.5mm flex cables to extend the keyswitch and put it in a galvanised box so i can turn the generator on and off on my side of the garage.
Here is where i run into the problem, i crimped the connections and extended the keyswitch with 1mm cable first just to try it out, nothing...
Then went and bought some 2.5mm, wired it all up again and i can prime, turn over the generator but it will not fire.
The cable i am using is 7.5m long so just wondering if that is where the issue is?
