Magnum Hybrid Inverter and ground fault
Hi all, I've run into a problem with the Magnum 3000 hybrid. It appears to be tripping 15 amp ground fault outlets.

When does the trip occur?
My trailer 15a GFCI trips when my Magnum switches from inverter power to shore power, or vice versa. I think when I'm on inverter, ground and neutral are bonded at the inverter, and when on shore power, they're bonded outside the trailer, and that probably "scares" the GFCI
I also have GFI at my home power pedestal, and it does not trip when the inverter switches back to shore power, so I know there's no really ground fault occuring.
