I just received a 1KW Renogy inverter and have a floating ground. I'm looking at building an Edison plug so not to be blocked by the onboard EMS. However this model has only 1 AC outlet. I'm wonder if I build an adapter with both a male (for the inverter plug) tied to a female plug (for the AC cord)? My thought is if I can do this, I could then use my12 gauge extension cord to plug into a 30amp to 15 amp dogbone at the AC trailer hookup.
If this could be done, do I wire one side normally and the other as the N-G bond? I don't know if making this adapter would work or cause damage.
Or can I do the G-N bond on the outlet itself and just plug in and go?
I'd prefer not to have return the 1KW unit and upgrade to the 2KW unit for $100+ more. The 1KW fits best into the area I would to mount it.
Hopefully someone has been through this type of issue and can provide a bit of guidance.
