I have a 5KW NL AC gen set hooked up to a Mastervolt 24/30/3 charger. This has three outlet ports for charging the high amp port goes to my 24V AGM 420 AH house bank. The most charge I ever see is 20 DC amps on that line and more often 12-16 AMPs. This means that it takes a long time to charge my house bank. The motor will charge 4X faster and a separate shore powered inverter/charger will also charge fast. I am thinking the builder undersized the charger hooked to the GEN set. Mastervolt makes a 24/60/3 unit and I am thinking I should switch to this. So my question is will my 5KW support this? I think so but I am not an electrical know it. The other question is if I pull my 2 year old perfectly good MV 24/30/3 out is there anybody who will want to buy it?
