Default Update: Honda EU200i Generator Question


"Mark" wrote in message
ups.com...


The EU2000 is kinda funny, in that the voltages off the hot and neutral
are
pretty random until you ground the neutral. That forces the hot to 120v
and
the neutral to 0v. Maybe that is why you are having a problem.

OTOH, I am not a generator expert. It seems clear, but maybe I am
overlooking something. Comments?


Is the EU2000 one of those generators that is actaully a DC generator
and has a built in inverter? Some inverter circuits will not work if
you connect either one of their outputs to ground.

Or is it a real AC generator?

It is a DC/Inverter but, as I said, it works just fine when the neutral is
grounded.
Though it probably couldn't be called a neutral until it is grounded.
