Good day everyone!
I'm sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section.
I have a small off gris setup for my garage.
12v 1200va victron phoenix multiplus
Victron 50a charge controller
1x 300w panel
2x rolls 6v batteries
Whole system works well apart from recently when I connected a mains socket with built in usb 2a sockets.
Was all working well until one day when I went in I noticed the inverter light was on red and had shut down.
On turning back on it immediately shut off again.
Noticed my RCD in the fuse panel wouldn't stay on either even when I disconnected the loads.
Found that the usb part of the mains socket had burnt out so I replaced it with a normal socket, also the RCD was dead so replaced that too.
Thought that was the end of it but since then if I plug in a normal phone usb charger in a mains socket they instantly start smoking and burn out!!!!
Everything else I plug in, computer charger, TV, power tool chargers they work fine.
Checked output voltage which is 230v
I'm totally confused why it blows usb phone chargers????
