<div dir="ltr">My outback GVFX's are protected. When a short is applied to the aux leads, it will remove voltage from the leads, and reset after a short while. Ive also tried this with relays that presented too low a coil resistance, and it tripped, but always reset on its own, at least in my case.<div><br></div><div>RoyR</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Dec 5, 2014 at 7:01 PM, William Miller <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:william@millersolar.com" target="_blank">william@millersolar.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US" link="blue" vlink="purple"><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">Jay:<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1f497d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">I suspect shorting the Aux leads will kill an FX inverter.
