When every load is off on the boat, the input at the battery isolator argofet reads 4.4 volts. If I disconnect the house output, the voltage drops at the input to 2.2 volts. But, not, the output 2 terminal will also read 2.2. volts.
It seems that my outputs are actually pushing voltage through the isolator to the rest of the terminals.
Is this normal?
@Alexandra - Any thoughts? You were so good with the monitor :)
I must confess I have never fitted an argofet. It does sound like a parasite load though.
As far as I know it won't be the argofet as it needs a certain voltage to energise, I may be mistaken. But I am sure it can be worked out. Are you reading the voltage with the ignition on or off? And are you measuring it at ground and input?
