I don't think anyone said otherwise? The reference to ATS above was to clarify that perhaps a UL458 inverter could use permanently bonded GN, even in scenarios where shore power is expected, because it must be installed behind an ATS (as opposed to the pass-thru models with switchable GN bond).
IF you want an inverter with a bonded neutral to use with an ATS for whole house RV use
i suggest you BUY one that specifies that is is wired that way
instead of damaging what you have by doing some wiring mod that is NOT supposed to be
I'm not clear on what you mean here. What wiring am I suggesting doing? I'm just trying to find out if the inverter I have already purchased has a GN bond as I would
expect it to, and by all reports so far it does.
I'd love to live in a world where every product was completely documented from end-to-end by subject matter experts, but that's just not what you find. If I restricted my purchases to products that were documented like that, I'd have very little to choose from (sometimes nothing to choose from), and pay several times the price.
