Eight questions from the Mixed Fleet cheat card — the differences that hurt when a crew swaps platforms. Attempt all eight before checking the key. Suggested pass mark: 8/10 scaled — aim for 7/8 or better here.

Questions

1. AC terminal torque, Kent M1 vs Kent G3:
  • A. 1.2 N·m vs 4–5 N·m
  • B. 4–5 N·m vs 1.2 N·m
  • C. 2 N·m on both
  • D. 1.2 N·m vs 8 N·m
2. Time-of-Use programming units, Kent M1 vs Kent G3:
  • A. Amps vs watts
  • B. Watts on both
  • C. Watts (6 slots tiling 24 h) vs amps (6+6 windows)
  • D. Percent of rated on both
3. Parallel DIP switches, Kent M1 vs Kent G3:
  • A. 2-way both-ON vs 3-way pins 1 & 3
  • B. 3-way pins 1 & 3 enabled vs 2-way both pins ON — at the first and last unit on each platform
  • C. Identical 3-way scheme
  • D. Neither platform uses DIP switches
4. Maximum installation altitude, Kent M1 vs Kent G3:
  • A. 4000 m vs 2000 m
  • B. 2000 m on both
  • C. 3000 m vs 4000 m
  • D. 2000 m vs 4000 m
5. The CT rule that is the SAME on both platforms:
  • A. Arrow toward the grid, clamped at the grid connection point
  • B. Arrow toward the loads
  • C. CT on the backup feed
  • D. Direction set in software only
6. The power-ON rule that is the SAME on both platforms:
  • A. Battery first, AC last
  • B. PV first always
  • C. Grid AC first; power-OFF is the exact reverse, battery first
  • D. Order doesn’t matter with lithium packs
7. Advanced-menu passwords across the two platforms:
  • A. One shared code for both
  • B. Partner-gated per platform — never use one platform’s code on the other, never share outside authorized crews
  • C. Printed in each manual’s appendix for convenience
  • D. Set by the customer at handover
8. Generator compatibility, Kent M1 vs Kent G3:
  • A. Three-phase on both
  • B. Single-phase DG ≤ 6600 VA / 30 A vs three-phase DG only (backup loads; grid-side loads need an ATS)
  • C. Single-phase on both
  • D. Neither platform has a GEN port
