Re: [RE-wrenches] Nuisance Tripping Hubble GFCI on EG4

[Jay via RE-wrenches]

I’ve seen GFCI have all sorts of weird issues. Not enough data to put the blame on the inverter.  I’d try different  big load or move the device to a different outlet and see what it does.  Good luck On Jun 5, 2026, at 9:19 AM, Drake Chamberlin via RE-wrenches <re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote:  I called EG4 tech support about this question. They said to use a commercial grade, 20 A GFCI receptacle.  My question is: "isn't a 15 and 20 A GFCI electronically the same? Isn't the only difference in the faceplate?"

It holds fine on an LED light bulb. Under a heavy load (PVC Heater), it trips after a minute or so.   Is there a GFCI receptacle brand that works better with the XP6000 inverter?   Thank you,   Drake      Drake Chamberlin Athens Electric LLC Ohio Electrical Contractor’s License 44810 NABCEP Certified PV Installation Professional   --   _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance Pay optional member dues here: http://re-wrenches.org List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org There are two list archives for searching.
