<p>New inverter installed followed by new washer. Old Trace SW
didn't have issues, but didn't have the washer either. I suspect
it wouldn't have operated at all on the Trace.<br>

<p>No error codes, just light flickering with the washing
action. Its a Magnum MS 4448 PAE, 48 v 845 AH of HUP
batteries, 2/0 cables. Happens day or night. Also the
lights are not on a dimmer, just a regular switch. It
happens to the LEDs all over the house. They are the
Econolight brand from Home Depot. Feit brand have less
flicker, but are still not acceptable.</p>
<p>We're thinking the distortion of the waveform by the washer
is creating harmonic distortion that the LEDs are responding
to. Still hoping filtering or different bulbs will fix the
issue. <br>

Esteemed Wrenches;<br>
<br>
We have a customer with a new high efficiency washer
running on a Magnum <br>
inverter. When it is in wash cycle, the LED lights
flicker rhythmically <br>
with its operation. We can see a corresponding
distortion of the wave <br>
form on an oscilloscope, but RMS voltage is steady at
117 vac. It does <br>
not cause trouble with incandescent lighting, and the
washer works fine.<br>
<br>
My questions:<br>
<br>
1) Has anyone else seen washing machines causing trouble
with lighting <br>
or other loads?<br>
<br>
2) Is there any line filtering available that might cure
this?<br>
<br>
3) Are some LED lights more prone to issues? We are
considering <br>
having the customer switch from the Home Depot cheapo
LEDs to Phillips <br>
or other higher end bulbs.<br>
<br>
4) Could it be related to the bulbs being dimmable?
Should we be using <br>
non-dimmable bulbs?<br>
<br>
As always thanks in advance for your invaluable input
and comments.<br>
