  1. I cant believe a person selling genrators for years would make such a comment regarding no need to convert to VOO. It shows that he knows nothing about Sans wiring regulations and has a blatant disregards for safety. Anyone can connect live and neutral. Most people are not even aware of the safety function that the a PEN conductor serves๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ™ˆ most generators can be converted to V O O making them compliant and legal when installed permanently with a spike thats within spec of regulations in terms of earth resistance and bonded to the main earth with a resistance no greater than 0.2ohm
  2. cut the original power supply cable install the one end to the controller and connect the other side to 12v supply that way the gate wont beep when in operation.
  3. The Sans Regulations supersedes the inverters installation manual, the documents state that all installs should adhere to Sans10142 the bonding relay would make this a non compliant installation as the regulations require a permanent earth neutral bond on the output side of an alternate supply source before it is wired to the changeover switch input. Non essential/essential loads needs a separate neutral bar, the inverter must have a separate grounding rod, reason being if the changeover is switched to the inverter the Bond is broken on the utility side and effectively on all essential loads if there is no earth spike with a bond the inverter wont have a zero voltage reference.
