[RE-wrenches] Inverter/AC pump compatibility question

2016-04-25 Thread Allan Sindelar
Wrenches, Has anyone powered a Grundfos SQ or SQE series soft-start AC submersible pump from a modified square wave inverter? I need to run a 1/2 hp 115V AC sub on a 1990-era Heart EMS 2800-12. The customer likes his equipment so I'm not encouraging an inverter

In addition to what is stated below, my understanding is that neutrals in many commonly used inverter output circuits are not current carrying conductors either. You’ll have to check with your inverter manufacturer to be certain, however. Best, August Luminalt *From:* RE-wrenches
