Small Case Version
The 008-120-10 series of alternators were designed for automatic duplex control of motors or other types of loads. They are available in a single phase voltage of 120 VAC. When power is applied to the alternator, the output relay contacts change state each time the control voltage is disconnected. The "SP" Version has two options: (1) a lead/lag/automatic selector switch and (2) a push-to-test switch for added convenience in testing or trouble shooting.
