Years ago back in 1978 the truck shop I worked at we had a jump pack that consisted of a 16hp B&S engine that ran 4-12volt generators that looked like the ones off of old tractors. There were 2 sets of jumper cables. If you were jumping with one set of cables you could connect the other set of cables to them selves to create a closed loop. By doing this it would create 300 amps on the set you were using.
I'm just curious how the 4 generators were hooked up inside the metal box. I didn't study it back then but wish I had now. Does anyone know where to find the wiring for such a contraption or have one of these old units? I tried to google it but come up with nothing.
