The house battery was dead and I took it out of the picture (removed it). When I plugged in the converter, it buzzed but output was 0VDC.
I unplugged the converter and temporarily installed a charged battery for the house. I ran the pump and stuff to winterize the plumbing.
I know if I plug in the converter with the charged battery in place, I will have voltage to the house circuits, but it could be coming from the battery, so that doesn't tell me anything.

Do most converters need a battery connected to produce output?
