I read through some threads but didn't find what I was looking for. Can someone help me figure this out?
I don't want to run different 110/120 outlets for my shore power and inverter power.
I was thinking that a Double Pole Double Throw relay before the PD4045 could accomplish that. Below are some links to some relays that I think would work.
I have made a crude wiring diagram but I have a couple of concerns on how to run the wiring. It's not complete and I could use some assistance.
When not connected to shore power the inverter would supply 110v through the normally closed contacts.
When shore power is connected the relay would energize and supply 110v through the Normally Open contacts
1. If use a DPDT relay do I need to worry about the converter running on the PD4045 when I am not connected to shore power? Essentially creating a loop from the inverter and converter?
2. Do I need to isolate the converter circuit from the inverter circuit?
3. Will a shared neutral/ground from shore power and the inverter be a problem? How would I tie in the neutrals from the shore power and inverter?
4. Would a better route be just to use an Automatic Transfer Switch? See Link
