    critique my ground-neutral bond plan

    FYI the newer units have the bond disabled/removed.

    First Post... Heating/Cooling 8'x8'x8' R-20 structure using: DC Aircon DV1910E-AC/H Capacity: 450W (1,535Btu)?

    Non vented AC isn't an AC. It's a device that blows cold air out one end, and hotter air out the other.

    Panels required?

    Cool. Wanted to make sure.

    Panels required?

    Looking at the EG4 3000EHV-48 Am I reading this correctly, that I'll need an array with at least a 120v open circuit voltage?

    EG4 3Kw inverter neutral ground questions

    Did you get anywhere with this? I want some of these inverters, but need to be able to control the ground-neutral bond.

    critique my ground-neutral bond plan

    I would think that's fine. You're just creating a ground-neutral bond at the generator. There are commercial plugs you can buy for this, or make your own... or a jumper wire... just depends on your generator. I have a similar question... I want to disable the bond on the EG4. I will ONLY use...

    Split phase inverter w/ neutral?

    Been a while... I came across this unit, which seems to fit the bill. Not a "portable" style like I originally desired, but the EG4 stuff seems well loved and battle tested at this point. https://eg4electronics.com/products/all-products/inverters/eg4-6000ex-48hv/

    12v mini air conditioner?

    Not dead. Went with an ultra quiet recpro unit.

    Split phase inverter w/ neutral?

    Thx. Sure would be nice if the Sigineer could charge on 120v like the Samlex. Not a big deal I guess, but it will certainly do what I need.

    Split phase inverter w/ neutral?

    @Dynoman thanks for the links. The sigineer should be more than I need, and I can use it on my existing 12v bank and can charge batteries through it with my 2000 watt gas generator if needed.

    Split phase inverter w/ neutral?

    I have 240v loads... just none that I need to power from the inverter.

    Split phase inverter w/ neutral?

    I don't need to run any 240 loads... just need/desire to power both phases of my main panel. Before anyone asks, my my main panel is outside, so a multi-circuit transfer switch isn't really an option.

    Split phase inverter w/ neutral?

    I'm looking for a minimal inverter. I need 240v split phase w/ neutral inverter (think whole house generator input). I only need to run lights, fridge, and small electronics, but I need to feed a 240v split phase panel. I only need to feed 1200-1500 watts max. What's the smallest split-phase...
