I've been using this system for about a year with no issues. This morning I woke up with no power. I have 48v trophy batteries that aren't dead but for some reason the inverter shut down. I tried to power it up several times with no success but after about 90 minutes it is working now but now...

The pump pulls 9.5A at start up and runs at 3.3A so the EG4 6000 inverter should be able to handle that.

I tried to just grab the one wire when measuring with the clamp meter but it was tight in there so maybe it was a bad reading. I can try again next time and maybe try and get the wire at the panel vs at the pump, might be more wire available there to clamp around. The generator came with the...

It is a shallow well with the pump mounted above ground. I guess I would say its a dug well as it is a 3ft diameter hole with a concrete lid. The other wells I have had were all drilled and had a 6" pipe with a submerged pump. This is all inside of a shed on the property, see pic. Cold-ish...

Thanks for the input. I was there this weekend and measured the amps with my Klein meter and it showed just over 2amps at startup and a bit under 2amps while running

Currently I have been powering the cabin by wiring in a Jackery 1000 to the breaker box so I can tell you we use about 40% of that per day. That's used by the 12 light bulbs, fan, charging any devices, and the fridge. The iceco specs state 0.545kw.h per 24h The well pump is a Countyline CL520...

I'm new to all this and trying to get a simple setup for an off grid cabin we recently acquired. From my brief research I'm leaning towards these components. I'm powering a 110v iceco fridge freezer, some lights, ceiling fan and a 1/2hp well pump that's 240v. All of this is currently powered by...
