While running off generator, I encountered power surge and now a/c won't work. I reset all breakers to no avail; replaced invertor less than six months ago. Ideas?

I don't have a suggestion about fixing the AC, but you need to consider adding a Progressive Industries EMS to protect your system from power surges in the future. It costs much less than replacing AC/Inverter/Converter/TV, etc.

Can you explain this power surge when the generator was on line? what caused the surge? what else was on at the time? and what gen is it?
