Hi James,
From my experience with older inverters it would have read zero.
When I got the answer from EG4 it makes sense.
It also now makes sense that they are so nervous about what grounds are
connected to the inverter buss as there is actually a connection to the power
electronics.
And
What voltage would you like it to read or what voltage are you expecting to
read? If I am understanding your post, you are measuring 120V Line to
Neutral and 120V Line to Ground. Ground has to "sit" somewhere and their
explanation of leakage current through the components is reasonable.
If concern
I just got an email back from them saying the following.
There is no solid bond but the following will allow voltage to be detected
between neutral and ground.
Internal EMI filters or transient suppression devices that connect the AC lines
to the ground.
A small leakage path to ground via these
Hi All
I just got off the phone with EG4 with the following situation and I wonder if
anyone has see this or can comment.
With no wires attached, inverter ( LUX 6000XP) I read 120v from L1 to ground
and of course 120v to N. Yes it has an internal ground bond option which is
turned off.
