Dear Wrenches,
Several of your co-wrenches are helping Mike Holt with the video
companion to his PV & the NEC 2014 book. So since you spend all your
weekdays thinking about the NEC, what better way to spend this weekend
than to watch NEC nerds discuss the meanings of shalls and shall-nots,
th
I once had a Xantrex DR inverter act goofy when the high voltage fence wire was a few inches from it.The inverter was hung on the inside of a barn wall and the wire ran across the back of it on the outside of the wall.If I remember right, the high voltage wire caused the DR to shut off.I think the
HI Wrenches;
I need to make a correction to my previous post: I mistakenly called
their new Whizbang Jr, the Gizmo Jr. Sorry, sometimes my flying
fingers get ahead of my brain.
See Bob Gudgel's off list message below. It also monitors battery

Not only are the voltages on these agricultural electric fences pretty high as
Roy mentions, but many supply the voltage as a pulsed square wave and therefore
generate harmonics and noise too. Electrical separation is necessary, and some
distance will help.

Erika,
That electric fencer needs it's own grounding electrode system!
Unlike the premises grounding system, where there's normally no
voltage present, the fencer's
ground completes the circuit.
I have measured over 12,000 volts on our f
SB3000TL-US inverters.
The concern is possible voltage that may lead the inverter to believe there is
a ground fault because of fence connections.
I wonder what the tolerable window of voltage of + or – to ground is for this
unit before it cries GF.
During a drizzle I had a little tingle wh
Hi Erika,
What seems to be the issue?
And what equipment ( inverters ) are you using

Anyone had to contend with electric fence installation (AC controller) using
a ground rod (not main service) at remote farm building and messing with
inverters? And perhaps causing other issues?
Of course, this is a metal roof with a lightning protection system (i.e.
