I have quadrafire classic bay 1200 pellet stove. I also have a 3500watt generator which is backup power.
When I connect the stove to the generator the stove’s call light comes on but the fans and the ignition sequence don’t start. The stove runs fine when connected to my home’s electrical supply.
I tried connecting the stove to a Tripp lite lc2400 power line conditioner. The stove runs off the power supplies by the line conditioner when using the home’s power. When the line conditioner was connected to the generator the line conditioner identified a line fault due to the generator using a floating neutral. This was resolved through a neutral bonding plug. With the stove connected to the line conditioner, bonding plug, and generator; the stoves call light comes on, but the fans and ignition don’t work.
(I ran a vacuum cleaner off the line conditioner while it was getting power from the generator.)
Does anyone have ideas on why the stove won’t startup when using power from the generator?
