Hi friends.
My Multiplus 3000 is inverting normally and passing shore power through to my 110v system, but three abnormal things are occurring: 1) the inverter is not recognizing shore power on my display, 2)it is not charging my house bank, and 3) as I watch my shore power voltmeter from my boat's panel, my inverter is producing a loud "clicking" sound, like a switch, and the voltmeter drops to zero for a split second when this click happens. This clicking/voltmeter drop happens about every 20 seconds. When I run my generator, my display is showing a grid source for electricity, the unit is properly charging my house bank, and there are no such clicking sounds.
Here's a video of the spectacle: https://youtu.be/cH_27vbkAVc
For now I've disconnected shore power, and am just running my refrigerator, freezer, and wifi which I use to monitor my house bank remotely. My electrician will be checking it out tomorrow but would appreciate any insights to this issue you all may have.
Thank you
