    Rv mini split sizing

    I found a thread on another site about mini split phantom loads. https://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/question/mitsubishi-mini-split-phantom-draw One of the contributors suggests the 200w idle consumption is likely from the heater inside the compressor (crankcase heater), which stays on to...

Our SW4048 also has intermittent grid support, 120v only on L1. There is no neutral-ground bond in our inverter subpanel. Our grid...
