There is no issue with using an inverter generator. The issue is with the generator having a floating output as opposed to a bonded neutral. Some non-inverter small generators also have a floating output. When the EMS senses a lack of continunity between the ground and neutral wires, it mis-diagnoses the situation as an open ground. The plug-in outlet testers make the same incorrect diagnosis.
