All hooked up and everything works..sorta

@fazeshift..using a multi, I’m getting 62v floating as you calculated.
Assuming the jumper wire trick you mentioned worked in my case, what would be the permanent fix for this? Any ideas?

The ground/neutral bonding box utilizing the dry contacts on the inverter is probably the most correct answer, though I am failing to find a technical reason why the neutral jumper is "bad" as a permanent fix.
 
Seems the jumper between neutrals is what watts 24/7 suggests on their MPP units, and he seems to be familiar with the issue.

Thanks for that, looks like the gang has a working fix I’ll have to try. Neither Signature or Growatt wants to address my missing program 24, so looks like I’m on my own. I wrote GW, and here’s reply. I asked for a copy of this special manual, that doesn’t seem to exist on interweb.
“ I have forwarded this issue over to the team.
They have checked the latest manual for this inverter and confirmed that
this inverter does not have a program 24.”

Guys doing off grid having same issues, but they’re bonding N and G, and bypassing case ground.
 
Made the jump, and now showing ground on AC out. Hope the band aid is bulletproof.
