Title: SPD-300-AC on an Ecogen Generator
Post by: schroew on January 28, 2022, 08:18:31 PM
I am getting an ecogen generator installed in a few weeks and would like to know if it is approved/supported to put a SPD AC on the AC line into my Magnum inverter ?

I'd put one on the Gen input and also on the Grid input

No grid for me. Thx for the reply. I’ll pickup a couple this morning.

It was ordered last April and just arrived if anyone was wondering.

This works with 120v ac? I dont have any 240v breakers in my panel and the generator input is 120v..

Yes, an SPD-300 will work with 120VAC.   120V to GND and Neutral to GND with the two halves.

Oooops...   Bad wording. Fixed  😁
