I'm unfamiliar with a 1000W model in the current Victron range Perhaps you have an older model? It's important to know exactly which model you have so that we can advise appropriately.
There are differences in how the earth - neutral reference is derived.

I'm really sorry, but this is a Victron discussion forum. That is not a Victron product, so we'd do ill to advise on how to implement any safety systems.
If you contact the manufacturer of your inverter perhaps they'd be willing to advise?

Additionally, for safety reasons, If you have to ask this question, you should not do work, related to life saving mechanisms.
