Truman, were you on shore power or just running off the batteries and inverter when the power panel went blank? If you were on shore power, I would check the transfer switch. If you were on the inverter and battery power, check the breaker for the inverter and the wiring to the batteries. Do the house batteries appear to be recharging when the generator is running?

Just the generator and batteries
The breaker for the inverter is in the reg.ele.house panel ?

There is typically a breaker in the house panel and a breaker on the inverter itself. There is also a fuseable link on the house batteries that can fail breaking the connection. What is the voltage of the house batteries? If they get to low, most inverters will turn themselves off.

Tripled checked everything again and it's all set now..no idea what happened
I'll have to keep an eye on it
Thanks for your help

Glad it is back on again. I have had my inverter/charger shut down due to overheating. I would consider cleaning and retightening all the house battery terminals. If your inverter has a control panel similar to my Pro-Sine, you might check to see if it has a setting that allows you to view alarm/fault codes and see if it shows a malfunction. That might give you insight into what happened.
