Chris,
I also found Kirk's response to capture what I would've checked first.
Ray is correct about multiple neutral-ground bonds, but there's a point
that I think has been missed. You didn't identify the generator, and I'm
going to assume that it's a portable gasoline unit. They have GFCIs on
My bet is on a neutral to ground bond inside the generator!

Undoing the N-G bond at the E panel may not do it either. Are you sure
neutral isn't also bonded in the main distribution panel? It usually is
bonded at the generator, so you definitely have to unbond there. I'd
say 60 to 70% of off grid systems are not bonded correctly that I've
seen. Just
You may have neutral and ground connected at more than 1 location, meaning
at the genset and in house panel, which means the ground is carrying
current back to the generator in parallel with the neutral.
I remember with some Honda portables we had to float the neutral at the
genset or the inverter
I visited this site this morning and found AC and DC voltages at the
inverter terminals to be within expected range (432 Vdc and 246 Vac).
Since the error code on the inverter specified it being an AC problem I
removed the upper cover of the inverter and traced all the terminal and
soldered connect
The easy answer is try another genset ! You have to be more specific,
did it ever work? Is it new? etc. Good Luck !
