Ellies Inverter voltage

[marhsava]

Bit of a noob with this ,I got a 1440W/2400VA Ellies Inverter , my question is what should the battery voltage read , my one is stuck at 220volts , should it read 224volts?

Surely it is using 12/24v batteries?

Edit: Yep, using this as reference, it should read ~24V. Are you sure you are not reading the output voltage or the input eskom voltage?

The 220v is not the battery voltage but the mains supply.

 

[marhsava]

This is shown on the inventer , is the 220volt output correct or should it read 224volt ?

 

[ld13]

That is the input/output reading from the unit, not the batteries. I guess 220V is fine. Why would you want/expect 224 exactly?

Nothing wrong with that
My Mecer inverter runs at 230V and 50Hz exactly

220v is correct

Nah. Just tell him to stick a knife in the plug and get done with it....

Mine reads 241V, there's nothing to worry about, the voltages fluctuates.

Thanks guys

Is there any reason you are running it on battery?
