LessonsLearned: Did you know standby generator makers have a universal key for the maintenance hatches on your generator sitting outside your building. All 'authorized' service people all over the country have it. How many folks knew there was a black market for generator starting batteries? ..........
In many places, the generator is inside a 8' chainlink fence -- sometimes with razor ribbon on top. But tamper switches ARE a good idea, if there is someone to respond. A PIR-triggered floodlight would not hurt, either. (Not to mention flashlights on hand for when the generator won't start...or access to drive a car w/high-beams up to it.) BTW, this is one reason why old hands have regular generator tests. Not "oh, I suppose we should.." but "Every Thursday at 2pm, for 30 minutes...." We always knew it was Thursday when the Army next door cranked up. -- A host is a host from coast to coast.................wb8foz@nrk.com & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433
