July 29, 2025Jul 29 Inverter s out there are 3 cables N L and PE.I ve put all those MCB as seen on picture.Is it ok or i should just use L for mcb and others just use wago? Thnx

ThnxIf the 2 on the RHS were a double pole you can put blue and brown through the 2 poles. If they are single as in your case then I would not. The green being earth should NEVER be broken. If broken and a fault happens and it trips you can be electrocuted. Perhaps use a sparky to do the connections correct. Life is worth more than the money saved!

Life is worth more than the money saved!There s no real earth. N n PE connected at inverter. U r correct i need to real earth n RCD. Just a smaĺl fridge s working at this system n 12v car fridge.

Is it just multimeter in continuity mode n probes one s on N the other s at PE while inverter is on?

ThnxGood day @occuplus No intention of being harsh but with your knowledge of electricity you are a hazard to yourself and your family. Rather get a electrician that can assist and do it correct and safe. Don't be fooled by a inverter AC output it can kill you.First of all the MCBs should be in an enclosure db to be precise. I don't see any utility input wires but neverless the earth neutral bonding needs to be done correctly. As pointed out the earth wire must never be broken, and if you need to isolate live and neutral it need to be through a double pole mcb not single mcb as the neutral should also not be broken if the live wire is still on. In other words switch the live wire only through a mcb or use a double pole mcb to switch off live and neutral at the same time. You need to add a earth leakage.Get the wiring sorted by an electrician as it can't be left in the current state.
