I use my generator to power my plasma cutter which uses IGBT based inverter.
Problem with using a generator is they don't continuously produce 60Hz. At no load they run about 63Hz then slow down to about 58 to 60Hz under some load.
At full power my plasma cutter will run the generator RPMs down and cause the machine to fault out due to under frequency.
Maybe miller needs to start making EV chargers.
I don't know why it would burn up an inverter. I worked on 270kw, 275VDC inverters that took 115v 3 phase 400Hz power and made it into 275 volt power.
The AC generators that powered them were all over the place as far their AC power out put goes, they worked fine down to 380Hz (when the AC generator faults out) and down to 105 volts, then the inverter just couldn't make 275v power.
