A review on here has me concerned about using my Yamaha ef2000 inverter to power this switch. Seems to be a problem with a bonded neutral...????

Not sure, but there is some discussion on the Reliance Controls website on this topic and a number to call... That said, I have run my Yamaha EF2000iS with this switch to power my furnace without problems.

I don't know if you can use this with an inverter. I do know that this has been removed from counter and is now sitting in the basement because it just didn't work well.

I have the same issue with one of my switches, it is ON all the time, have seen similar comments, it appears to be a common failure with these units. With that said I view it as an inconvenience not a safety issue. The output is only 12V and as long as each individual output is protected (as described) then each one should trip if it gets shorted or overloaded. However to be safe I would unplug the whole unit anytime you mess with the output wiring.

Mine was setup for US voltage. I would look and see if if it would support Europe, but I returned it and got a Yamaha instead.

Inverters do not have High Start-Up Amps. They start at zero speed and catch up as needed. So you do not need to worry about this issue.

I have read somewhere you should connect the inverter to the battery. Because of the potential load you are pulling could exceed the charge controller. I am just passing on what i read just got my panels will be installing them soon

I think you mean to plug your inverter into one of these outlets. Same rules apply. Check that the inverter is not pulling more than the rating of this unit

I have a Yamaha reciever and had a pos/neg 2 wire setup and no problems. As long as you have center channel setup.

Ours has been fine but hasn't been used too much. I'd call Yamaha and/or an instrument repair shop to see about fixing what likely is a minor internal electrical issue (loose wire, burnt chip, cheap stuff). It has the most genuine and beautiful piano action I, and my mom's best friend concert pianist of 50 years, ever have experienced on an electric. It's the action from a real acoustic Yamaha piano that uses electric amplification. About as pure as it gets. Take it in and fix it - cost depending of course - it's too fine an instrument to trash.Good luck,Steve

I have a 175 watt Yamaha receiver and I bought and returned the ave version because it wouldn't even turn on my receiver from the battery ports but did work through the surge port. I Plan on buying the PFC version but haven't as of yet

You will need to get a licensed Electrical to solve your problem. To connect the switch correctly it is important to do a proper connection to get this switch to work. It is critical as an improper connection can damage the electronic controls in the switch and then it is damaged. Sorry I am not there to help you out but a local electrician should be able to check this out for you.

I agree with T. Thomas, sounds like reversed polarity - it's easy to do as the documentation is not very clear on the wiring.

I run mine thru my inverter so that it will work when I am unplugged from shore power. Good luck

It's possible they'll help, and they're certainly the cheapest possible fix, but it's unlikely they'll completely take care of the problem. The RF is probably mostly switching noise from the inverter - I'd look at putting an isolation transformer near the AC output of the inverter and shielding the inverter itself as much as you can.

Daniel: please read the review I wrote on December 6 2011 "Excellent electronic ballast for one F40/F34 T12". It describes the slight difference in wiring that I encountered on that installation and the wiring conventions I followed. Perhaps it will help.

Hi. Please contact yamaha tech support regarding those technical questions. Thank you

If you didn't use an inverter, you can't fix it. You've fried the electrical components with too much voltage.
