Inveter Charging ?

Where is Sean Welsh when ya need him?
He knows all about this stuff!

Living the good life,I am going to call him with another question I have in the next week

Cliff for the quick and easy solution just calculate your required charge rate for the bank you have and set one inverter to that figure, disable the charger on the other one. This will work just fine.

The Trace guru in CO Springs Co walked me through it,I now have one doing the bulk charge and the other does the float it's doing great.
I plan on just using 1 inverter and removing the other all plugs and fixtures stay hot when I turn either off.I still do not like the generator and shore power needing to run through the inverters first but that is another project for a different day 

[thomasinnv]

Are you saying all power goes thru the inverter first? Not the main panel? I wouldn't like that either. My generator/shore goes to the main panel, then a 30 amp breaker feeds the inverter from there, then from inverter to a sub panel for inverter fed circuits.

Clifford -

I sent you a private message.

Seems I have heard the inverter as the lead before, and with some follow-up looking around long time ago. I found a few post here and elsewhere with Seans transfer box build he did early on. Sure was a cool build.
I believe in that setup he used the transfer as the lead from pole and genny sure worth taking another look at!

I wired mine so that the power from pole or generator goes to a standalone ATS, from there it goes to the non-inverter panel and to the inverter both, through the inverter to the inverter panel.  So I have two breaker panels, one that can be fed from the pole or the generator, and one that can be fed from the pole, generator and the inverter (in that order of priority).
