Update: Using my phone to peck this out, one letter at a time. 😀
Not being able to find a repairman, I decided to get in to this myself. First, I should say for the first 24 hours, I continued to have full functionality via the shore power. Then I should say for the last 24 hours. I have been without any power from any source. Of course this happens when we had a gully washer rainstorm, and a present temp of 54 degrees, with 15mph winds straight out of the North
When I disconnected the shore power and shut off the batteries, everything went out. I heard the AGS start but I now know my broken cable is to the transfer switch, so even though the generator and on it was not transferred. I plugged the shore power back in, heard the familiar ‘clunk’ but no transfer was made.
Before I unplugged the shore power the first time, everything was still working without the broken cable because no transfer was necessary.
All of my battery cables are 2/0 EXCEPT the disconnected one, its 3/0, a heavy duty welding cable. I was at a welding supply house at 7 am this morning and got what I need, including a cable cutter. Yesterday I stripped back the end of the 3/0 and the corrosion goes about 4 inches. I’m going to cut the bad part off and splice a new piece to reach the stud.
