Reading through this thread I noticed a few people have an inboard genny which they run while watching the TV and using other appliances.
I have a 6.5 kw Vetus connected to a 3kw Victron combi so I thought I would be fine . However when running the genny I've fried the following 240 volt appliances :- TV,DVD,Microwave,Induction hob and chargers for phone and computer . This happens intermittantly so it's obviously spikes in the system that I can't predict . I now only run simple devices - kettle,toaster,radiant hob,immersion heater,iron,power tools etc .
The Victron is supposed to smooth any spikes from the genny but I'm not happy , everything works fine off the inverter but not being able to run the genny without switching off certain appliances defeats the point in having it.
Has anyone else experienced this ?
Should I be looking for a fault in my Victron ? (trouble is it's an expensive business replacing appliances to test any changes).
