Also check the inverter syncing,  if they aren't in sync you can have the wave forms become additive and have higher voltages too. Ray Walters Remote Solar 303 505-8760 On 8/13/18 12:03 PM, Ray wrote: Good Call Drake,  I've definitely had that problem before too. Neutral became disconnected,

Good Call Drake,  I've definitely had that problem before too. Neutral became disconnected, and the voltage on one leg got so high it damaged some equipment: garage door opener, heating controls, microwave, oven controls  Funny thing was when the loads were roughly balanced, everything

Good point about the neutral ! Go thru the panel/ light circuits and re-torque. Set up the combox to log L1 and L2. --Dave On Mon, 13 Aug 2018 09:04:37 -0400, Drake wrote: > This problem might be due to a neutral connection > problem in the electrical system. Loose neutral > connections can

This problem might be due to a neutral connection problem in the electrical system. Loose neutral connections can put 120 V loads in series. It puts loads on both line 1 an line 2 in series for 240 V. The high resistance load (the one with the low draw) gets high voltage. At 06:23 PM

Daniel, No, have not seen this. I would load an SD card into combox and start a logging program to monitor L1 and L2. Since Schneider replaced the inverter control board I am at a loss. Your comments seem logical to me also. What about refrigerator surge? if you still have repair number from
