Hey guys….I have 2000 Fleetwood bounder with gas generator. I recently repaired my generator and now when I start my generator there is a loud buzzing noise coming from my breaker box on the coach. It doesn’t buzz while on shore power so im thinking it has something to do with the generator. Any thoughts?
 
Check your voltages coming out of the generator. Also the frequency of that alternating current - should be very close to 60 hertz.

I checked each circuit breaker and they were all coming in at 120+ volts. Not sure how to check the frequency.
 
A good quality multimeter will enable the measurement of frequency in alternating currents. Typically, with the use of the "Hz" button.
