As a follow up, we went up there to assess. Sure enough, there were two AC
neutral to ground bonds. We will see if this fixes the problem.
Thanks!

Make sure the electric dryer is using a four prong outlet and pigtail. It could
be that the smarts of the dryer is using 120v for its computer and with only
three wires, current would flow on the ground.
Thank you,

I had him check to see if it trips once the generator is latched and he
said it does not trip. I thought I had verified all of the DC and AC
bonding occurred only once in the system but its been a few years and it
was a construction project so someone might have decided to bond the main
service
Would be interesting to see if it happens if they are using the generator.

Yes you can have a GFI trip as a result of something on the AC side, I had
a hard line data line cause a trip of a GFI even though you would not see
anything on a meter, had to use a optical bridge to connect, granted this
was Sunpower 327's on a Outback 7200 off grid but it can happen. This
If there is any current flow between DC negative and ground anywhere in
the system, it will trip. I would check the dryer for a ground fault,
and I would check the system to make sure Neutral is not bonded to
ground in more than one place (very common). Most importantly, I would
make sure
Hi wrenches,
I've got an off grid customer that has an external PV GFI breaker in his
charge controller that trips when the dryer is on. He snuck in an electric
dryer uggh
However, I am curious what the mechanism might be to cause the trip. Will a
ground fault on the AC side of an inverter trip
