SW transfer relay [RE-wrenches]

[John Blittersdorf, Cent. VT Solar & Wind]

Wrenches,
   My customer has reported numerous episodes of his SW4024 shutting down 
with "input relay error" light.  He has to go out to his power shed and turn 
the inverter back on.  It is related to the generator input and happens when 
the generator is coming on line.  This inverter has been tortured with 
numerous pieces of junk he called "generators" before I was able to sell him 
a good one.  I finally was able to witness the failure when we were testing a 
propane conversion on his new Yamaha generator.  I'm assuming that the relay 
must be failing to switch properly but I  don't understand why the inverter 
is shutting down.  Any ideas?  My solution seems to be to pull the inverter 
and send it for repair but since it works OK after turning it back on, I am 
hesitant to pull it without having a better idea why this is happening. Has 
anyone experienced this problem?
