Another question on the alternator. Yesterday I bought 2 new 18A NVR motor starters, one for each single-phase motor, to have a better set-up. (Currently I was starting with a mish-mash of ancient contactors and relays.) Each new NVR has the usual start/stop buttons and an integral adjustable overload switch. Question? -is it OK to have 2 such devices in parallel, because each motor has its own overload too. I can't bypass the new NVR overloads, because each Stop button operates by a lever to the overload module itself.
I intend to start the motors in sequence to reduce Amps.
