it most likely that the EMS is looking for a ground and neutral bond, which most generators don’t have. To fix this, you can connect the negative/neutral terminals of one the 120 outlets. While you can make your own plug to do this, you can also purchase one. Here’s one that Hughes sells: Hughes Autoformers Ground Neutral Plug amzn.to/3XpiYTs I’m pretty sure this is what’s happening assuming your EMS is working normally on shore power.
I’m in no way suggesting that gas is dirty power. The fuel source has no impact on the type of electricity it produces. I’m referring to the electricity created by open frame generators. Open frame generators regulate the frequency of the electricity with the engine speed. This isn’t normally a problem with a lot of applications, but can be over time for sensitive electronics that are microprocessor-driven. Dirty electricity is a common term used for this type of electricity. I do appreciate the feedback. Thank you!
I find this video to be well researched. Clean vs dirty power refers to the suitability for sensitive electronics. I don’t want to destroy my tv with an open frame generator, man.
That’s a really good point. I have seen some pretty large inverter generators that are also inverters. One of the reason they are often open frame is because the engine is very large and requires the additional airflow for cooling. I can’t speak for every one, but they would likely fall into my category of “not recommended for Camping”
@@OutdoorMilesMedia I’m actually not a camper. I just need generators cause I live in Puerto Rico. Our electrical infrastructure sucks. I very much appreciate your video.
Really good simple video. Real good for the new to RV'ing. Thank you!
Glad you liked it. Appreciate the feedback!
Sorry to bug you again but do you know why in a 50 amp RV the electrical main box is not bonded?
Why when I connect my generator to my rv and I use a Hughes Ems it wont give me power??

Awesome, thx so much.
Dirty power has nothing to do with an inverter generator.
Read your directions on your electronics before recharging with an inverted sine wave.
Man please do some research. I dont mean to put you down but alot of you you say here is just not true. gas just does not mean dirty power.

Some open frame generators do in fact have inverters.
