I heard a loud explosion from our back bathroom. When I went to investigate I saw a lot of smoke and the strong smell of a failed electrical part. Our converter is back there and that was the first thing I checked. Power going in nothing coming out. Microwave is dead. All inverter circuits are dead. Inverter is dead. Tried to reset the GFCI, nothing.
When I set the generator to ?auto? it turns on within seconds, even though I'm on shore power. If I turn on the inverter at the panel it comes on and all circuits work. Even the inverter GFCI works.
All circuit breakers test good.
The converter is an OEM from the factory, I think it's a WFCO. I'm going to replace it with a three stage converter and go from there.
Any ideas on what else I should do?
