[RE-wrenches] Schneider MPPT 80 600 Charge Controller

[Tom Duffy]

Unfortunately a “ground fault” report, may just be some sort of anomaly, it could be even ripple voltage leaking through the inverter from a generator shutting down.

Supply chain crunches brought on by the pandemic and Omicron’s toll on the workforce are causing shortages of goods. Most analysts agree that rising prices — not just in the US, but also across the world — are largely consequences of the Covid-19 crisis rather than policy errors by governments or central banks.
Infectious waves have closed factories in Asian manufacturing hubs and caused chaos in transporting products to US markets, creating a spike in demand. Also Americans have cash to burn after two years of canceled vacations, closed restaurants and working from home, a major factor supercharging the price surge.

Wrenches,

Are there any recommendations on repair shops for the above device? Schneider provided me with a list of repair shops but none of them work on charge controllers. The charge controller in question throws a ground fault error when there isn’t one. I verified this with a different charge controller.

Thanks,
