Two inverters for 50 amp service
We have a Go Power IC Series 3000 watt inverter and 50 amp service on our 5th wheel. I have 2 complaints about it that I wasn't aware of when it was installed. The monitor panel only monitors Line...

This is where I disagree. The 50A 120/240V circuit is single phase . The transformer secondary winding is center taped for the neutral and the current flows in the same direction in both halfs at a given point in time. And the neutral current is the difference of the two hot legs. The simple fact that it's a single transformer winding means that it's single phase.
I don't disagree, I'm not saying it is a 3 phase circuit, just that the currents in each leg (and also voltage) are phased 180 degrees with each other so if the current in the neutral is then the difference in current between the legs.
