Our Inverter Blows Up!

Unbelievably, after only two months of operation, our Xantrex Prosine 3000 inverter blew up! Again! I just called and got ANOTHER RMA# to return it. They say it could take up to four weeks to get it fixed up.

Grant Ball, who re-did all the wiring on the entire boat, installed the inverter and did a bang up job. He is a true expert in these things and I can't think of anything he could have done better - or different - to have prevented this issue.

The only thing remotely possible that could be wrong with the overall boat wiring is that we are running off of two shore ties and it is possible although nor probable, that there was an unbalanced neutral current resulting from being out of phase between one of the circuits.
