Will I was looking at your video on the transfer switch you were reviewing.
I am putting together a solar solution for my bunkie and I have a questions regarding design.
My reliable power 3000 watt inverter requires a bonded neutral in a small sub panel which is connected to it which I'll use to power the AC in the bunkie.
It is hardwired to the inverter through the inverters terminal block
There should only ever be one bonded neutral in a topology from I understand.
I have a 60 amp grid service in the bunkie fed by the garage now.
I'm taking as much grid out of the power requirements for the bunkie as possible but still am considering a 220v circuit grid connected with a transfer switch to provide power the solar as required if the batteries go go below threshold.
That grid panel has bonded neutral at source in the garage. The bunkie panel doesn't since there is one in the garage that feeds it.
I am wondering if I need to remove the bonded neutral in my solar? Or does the transfer switch stop backfeed including bonding???
I would think I'd need to remove the solar bonded neutral to ensure one bonded neutral in the whole setup.
The garage would have one and everything doesn't.
It may be also that I can't provide grid to my bonded neutral solar setup? Not a big deal really but for the price of the transfer switch it's dirt cheap backup
Any thoughts folks?
