<x-flowed>windy do you have your dc and ac wiring in the same conduit (pump 
controller wires)? We have seen something similar w/ remote gen and its 
auto stop relays and AC voltage going back to the gen shed.Seem that the 
harmonics play hell on the low voltage relays.We have run our control wires 
now w/ shielded wire.This doesn't have any thing to do w/ the inverter but 
the harmonics that are created while trying to run both ac & dc voltage 
back to the generator shed. The customer wanted ac power in the shed, about 
250 '& away ran the non shielded remote start wires in the same conduit 
.... just a thought
