SOURCE: Electrical cable size requirement

This is an answer to your question only. The safest thing to do is hire an electrician to do it. There may be factors you don't recgonize that a skilled eye would pick up on.

The proper size wire is #4 copper or #3 Aluminum. THHN is the most common and most versatile type in conduit. a #6 ground wire is ok. Stranded pulls a lot easier than solid and do yourself a favor and buy some wire pulling lubricant just in case.
Make sure to obey all manufacturer's instructions. If you use aluminum make sure to place anti-oxidation compound or Nolox on your lugs in the panel. Please write back with anymore questions.

SOURCE: Kohler Model 12RES LP gas generator starts

Sounds like a short in one of the windings to me. Can you verify that the engine rpm is not exceeding specs? If you can modify the engine speed Id say slow it down and see what the voltage read is.

Lowes sells air filters for Kohler engines . As far as the oil a SEA 30 or 10w 30 would be fine.

I have kohler 12res 60hz generator can I covert to 50hz ? If yes than how can ?

No you cannot, a 60HZ unit is designed to run (and the controller expects to see 60HZ) RPMS 1800 for a 4 pole rotor and 3600RPM for a 2 pole. Slowing engine speed down to 1500RPM the controlelr would see it as under frequency

Kohler 12K RES where are links for the installation /setup of the controller? thanks

The 12RESL has no user setup. That's part of lower cost on the DC 2200 controller versus an ADC 2100 or ADC-RES controller that came with the 12 / 17 / 18 RES models. Here is a link for the ADC 2100 Operation / Installtion manual though. http://www.scribd.com/doc/60318571/Kohler-8-5-12RES-Install

I have Kohler 12Res generator,sometimes it runs fine and sometime it runs for 5 min and then shut down with error code UU (under voltage).I cant find authorized service center in Pakistan.Please help me to...

If it has a couple hundred hours or more, try cleaning the slips rings on the back of the rotor shaft. They should be very shiny and not black or polished looking.

Kohler Model 12RES LP gas generator starts normally but immediately shuts down with over-voltage alarm. Control panel replaced.

Sounds like a short in one of the windings to me. Can you verify that the engine rpm is not exceeding specs? If you can modify the engine speed Id say slow it down and see what the voltage read is.
