Hello everyone.I've purchased a 3 position (12 terminals) changeover switch and wish to connect my inverter and the mains connection in my caravan (Australia).
The changeover switch connections are a little different in that I need to include a MEN link as the Renogy inverter doesn't have an earth to neutral internal link (isolated). This is required in order for the RCBO after the inverter to work. Take a look at the next diagram to see what I mean:
I'm unsure as to how to make the necessary connections. I note in another post and on a youtube video, of the requirement to install a jumper link between the load terminals 2 - 4 and 6 - 8. I did this but it immediately made both number I and 2 switch positions live (as per a continuity test).
I've already made a dummy setup for testing purposes but only running continuity testing at this point.
Can anyone shed some light on what I need to do?
