Re: eliwell controller problems
Sounds like you've got a broken neutral. Work backwards from the neutral at the power supply until you find the break - its probably a loose connection somewhere.

Re: eliwell controller problems
yes tried swapping them over and still getting live down neutral. I disconnected my neutral off the controller so all i had was the live in, i tested the neutral terminal on the back of the controller and it had 240v on it so it must be the controller. Just seems strange

Re: eliwell controller problems
You have a floating neutral. Try to find a fixed neutral point and connect all your neutral wiring to this point.
I am not always right, but I'm never wrong!
