Do You Need a Neutral-Ground Bonding Plug for RV Inverters and Generators? Are you using an inverter or generator to power your RV and wondering if a neutral ground bonding plug is required? In this Tech Tip Tuesday, Todd explains how RV electrical systems work, why RVs are sub-paneled, and when bonding becomes a critical safety issue. Learn how surge protectors and EMS systems check for proper bonding and what happens when that bond is missing.
Todd breaks down real-world examples using generators and inverter systems like the Lion Energy Safari and explains why some power sources pass EMS checks while others fail. This video helps RV owners, technicians, and inspectors understand safety, fault protection, and NFPA expectations.
