3kw 24v Plug & Play without DB

Featured Replies

Hi, greetings.

I have an axpert 3kw hybrid inverter with 2 x 200Ah deep cycle LA, with 100A Fuse between battery and inverter.

I have connected the AC input to a wall socket 20A as the inverter has an AC input of 16.9A and output is 13A.

The AC output is connected via cable to a multi-plug.

System will only be running 2 x TV and 2 x dstv modems. 

Is this correct, and may I use the AC input from wall socket on this system ?

I have not plugged anything in yet.

AC input earth, AC output earth, and Inverter earth bound together as one ? Fine ?

No problem should be fine earth's are all common.

If you short between Neutral and Earth on the multi plug, does you earth leakage trip? If not, I don't think you have earth leakage protection.

What is the standard on the inverter trolleys, do they have earth leakage protection?

This is the problem with inverter trolleys you suppose to use class 2 (double insulated) appliances only as they do not come standard with earth leakage protection. If you use class 1 appliances ( refrigerators toasters all appliances with an earth connection) you are to wire in an earth leakage on the output side before the multiplug and you need a non permanent bond between earth and neutral on inverter output side.
