Hopefully? Another 48vdc-240vac Toriod Inverter build.

BTW: Found a permanent fix for the melting Fuse holder - I removed it

I'm going to do something I've been wanting to do for a while. Fit a 500A [700A] peak Hall Sensor on the DC input, and as the voltage output is so stable, accurate and noise free, it can be easily set to an exact Trip current, I'll use that to halt the Inverter drive and throw the Big Contractor solenoid open in the event of a catastrophic current surge.

Is the fuse/holder ANL type?  If so, I have also found them to be impractical for high (>100A) amps due to high resistance.  Class T fuse/holder should work much better with high amps.
