How did you "bypass the inverter?"
Does this model have a built in automatic transfer switch?
How have you wired it? IIRC, many of the combined I/Cs have multiple methods of
wiring, i.e., subpanels, main panel, etc.
My Freedom 15, for example, is wired so that all AC loads are covered by my inverter, but I manage the loads downstream of the I/C, i.e.,
water heater is never on when the Inverter is on. Other
wiring options include NOT having the
water heater on the inverter output.
Need more info from you to answer the question, not sure I agree with the previous answer at all.
