    Giandel inverter neutral-ground bond in off-grid system

    Reporting back on what I learnt to close out the thread with information for future readers. Here's what I changed: - I decided to turn some of the electronic loads to be 12v DC loads, reducing minimum inverter capacity and increasing efficiency. I still need to find a reasonable 600W 24v to...

    Giandel inverter neutral-ground bond in off-grid system

    :) I can’t tell if you’re serious but I did the test. AC hot is NOT continuous with AC ground. Knowing this, what do you think?

    Giandel inverter neutral-ground bond in off-grid system

    @John Frum equipment ground lug is continuous with AC ground (though they did ask in the manual to connect the grounding lug to earth so I have so used the provided 14AWG cable to bond the two — not sure why they’d need that if it’s internally bonded) AC neutral is NOT continuous with AC ground.

    Giandel inverter neutral-ground bond in off-grid system

    The Giandel manual says: "The power inverter is designed to be used with a negative ground electrical system! Don't use with positive ground electrical systems (the majority of modern automobiles, RVs, trucks and boats are negative ground)" -- I read that to mean that the DC negative should be...

    Giandel inverter neutral-ground bond in off-grid system

    Hi, This is my first ever solar system. Please go easy, I'm here to learn and am eager to receive advice :) Background threads on the forum I've read: https://diysolarforum.com/threads/giandel-no-ground-neutral-bonding.24599/...
