Reverse Mains Supply The reverse polarity light is designed to illuminate when the
Polarity reversed? Live and Neutral supply has been reversed / crossed over.
light is If the light illuminates there is a problem with the site supply
illuminated or the cable connecting the supply to your vehicle. The light
on PSU 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 advice.

Generator being ‘The Reverse Polarity warning light is on when using my
used 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.
