Reverse Polarity light is
illuminated on PSU
Mains Supply reversed?
The reverse polarity light is designed to illuminate when the Live and Neutral
supply has been reversed / crossed over. If the light illuminates there is a problem
with the site supply or the cable connecting the supply to your vehicle. The light
is designed to work on UK electrical supplies (where the neutral conductor is
connected to earth at the sub station). If you are using your vehicle outside the
UK this light may illuminate when no fault exists. In these cases consult the site
warden for advise.
Generator being used
‘The Reverse Polarity warning light is on when using my Generator’.
This is a normal side effect when using some types of generator.
Instead of connecting the neutral conductor to earth, some generators centre tap
the earth connection making both neutral and live conductors 110v above earth.
This 110v difference causes the neon polarity indicator to illuminate. In most cases
it is still safe to use the generator, but please consult the generator handbook for
further information.
