To rectify this common installation problem, many installers are recommending a Mains Earth Neutral Connection (MEN), which bonds the Neutral to the Earth, thereby nominating the Neutral conductor. As a result of this isolation, the earth cannot become part of a current path returning current back to the output of the Inverter. Both the line and the neutral are isolated from earth, the chassis, and from the DC input. Unlike mains power, the AC output of the majority of inverters do not have its neutral bonded to earth. Will my RCD’s work, and can the inverter be installed safely?

My electrician will not install my inverter because there is no earth from the 240 volts AC output.
