So I installed a victron 12/1600/70 inverter/charger (http://www.solarshop-europe.net/product_info.php?products_id=692) and 280 A batteries in Olga only to find out I had a hotskin. about 70 volts and only a few miliamps
In Denmark we have 230 volts 1 fase, neutral and earth I found out there was a broken earthwire in the house.
That makes me think a rather new electric installation in a civilised country can a fault like this that is potential lethal, what is going to happen on small campsites in spain or portugal or marokko even ?
For the future i will make sure that any landlines are connected properly and I will make a earthing stake as a backup
