was watching the YT channel for David Poz and this issue came up..please address each point separately..
1- He had a couple of Growatt 5000 in parallel into a service panel..I didn't see if there are 2 hot wires that come out of the GW 5K so you could use a 240v breaker in the panel..its a Euro 240 not a split phase so is there 1 or 2 wires and if only 1 how do you do it if a USA 240 breaker has 2 hot screws..?
2-He wired in an auto transformer to give him a neutral for USA 120v...but people commented that if the 40 amp breaker that the auto transformer used tripped for some reason it would cause trouble. Did he mean that immediately both L1 and L2 would become 240v and burn out some appliances??
3- What is the fix for that problem on question 2...?
he said he was going to address the issue on a future video but I couldn't find it right away..
thanks for any info....
