Inverter continues to restart.

Can you show us the pictures of your setup so we can see how all components are wired together?
Here is a picture of my setup. I don’t have a breaker between my battery and inverter yet because I wanted to see if the new inverter would work without issue.

Just looking at OPs previous issues with this inverter. Wires seem ok size, but other areas are confused!


And there is definitely at least one cheap breaker installed for something...
The only breakers I currently have is between battery/controller and panel/controller.
 
Something not making sense to see the Voltage jumps up to 30V.
Turn off the breaker between PV panel and the Charge controller first, then turn off the breaker between chart controller and the battery and then turn on the inverter to see what will happen. I think the Epever output is spiking up the Voltage, there are threads about this issue.

Here is my current setup.

Hello
I tried what you said and shut the breakers to controller off and just turned on inverter. Should have thought of that but anyhoo. Again inverter still shut off. So I think even though it’s a replacement it is still bad.

Is it still spiking to 30v?
 
It doesn’t spike to 30v however it goes to 19v and shut off again.
I think your inverter is toast. Also cheap breakers are bad news. I've seen a few cases even where nice ones are bad.
This guy cooked 2 inverters one after another. I don't care for his setup at all but I think the breaker contributed to the failure causing the inverter to starve drawing excessive current and popping it under surge.
