What's up everybody. It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna be checking out this Hughes Autoformers generator adapter plug. So what this is gonna do is you're gonna plug this into the floating neutral generator we have here, and we're gonna go to plug in our surge protector. It's gonna detect that it doesn't have a floating neutral anymore. Let check it out.
So what this is gonna do is sometimes when you use one of your smart surge protectors with the lights on there that give you the code. Sometimes you won't allow you to use the power because it says there's an error, which you have a floating neutral or an open ground. It's gonna detect that and think it's not usable power. So what this does is this is gonna plug into the generator here that has the floating neutral and it's gonna create a bond. So then it doesn't have that floating neutral anymore.
Then these codes should say it's all clear and should have power. So let's test it out. We're gonna plug in a surge protector see what codes it's pulling up. You can see right here with the one yellow light means there's an open ground. So it's letting you know, there's an error, thinks there's an error.
We can change that by plugging that adapter in route to unplug the surge protector first. Plug the adapter in. Now replug in the surge protector. And let's see what it says. Looks like we've got two yellow lights.
It's got a good connection, so it's good to go. Overall, I think this adapters is good to have especially if you aren't on soft ground where you can actually ground your generator, these Champions have floated neutral. So you do need to ground them. If you're not on that kind of ground where you can do that, let's say you're tailgating in a parking lot. This will be really good to plug that in, that way at least you have a bonded neutral and you can use your generator. Well, I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out, and hope this helps..
This neutral ground plug did exactly what I expected it to do. Plugged it into my Honda EU3000is generator and my 30amp Hughes Watch dog shore power inlet is green and happy on all three indicators now. Before I had an open ground.
Worked perfectly on my HF 5000 watt gen erator.
This solved the "open ground" problem on my Honda generator. It was as simple as plugging it in and starting the generator.
It did the trick and got rid of my hot neutral reverse light issue from my generator.
I would have preferred a product made in the USA
This product saved me! I had just bought an expensive Honda EU3000is generator and I found that it wasn’t working with my high efficiency furnace. Only the fan would come on without the burner. Come to find out the generator has a floating neutral. I plugged this baby into one of the outlets on the generator, ran a chord out of the other to the furnace and what do you know the bonded signal did the trick! Furnace runs like a champ. Very happy!
It does do what is supposed to do be nice if it had an indicator on it but other than that, it’s excellent buy.
The plug worked as advertised. The only issue I had was at checkout, I chose an option for a Saturday delivery - it didn't arrive until Tuesday. Not the biggest deal, just kind of annoying. Still quick either way!
Well made and it seems to work
Perfect. Does exactly what it is supposed to do. No more ground faults when I power our RV with a generator.
Worked as stated and what I needed for the Hughes EPO Power Watchdog to work with a generator.
Works exactly as described. Easy to use.
Just used it last night for the first time. We have a Wen 3500 inverter generator and with the floating neutral ground I was not able to get my Watchdog surge protector to work last week. I plugged the Hughes Autoformers Ground Neutral Bonded Plug into my generator and everything worked perfectly. I ordered it from Etailers on a Monday and had it in my hand by Thursday. Thank you.
Works as advertised.
It solved my neutral ground issue when using my HOnda generator with my Airstream trailer
works great. should have gotten one years ago and the staff at e trailer are great as well.
It fixed my issue. I have a new home (modular) and the furnace wouldn’t run off generator. With this plugged in I was able to plug my furnace into my portable generator and it worked. Nice to have an emergency backup!
NO! It has not been delivered. I just went out to see and there is no delivery as of yet. Still waiting

This product continues to do the trick after a year. Without it my generator would have made a nice addition to the dump since the only reason I got the generator was to power my furnace in the winter. Thanks again for giving my generator a bonded signal!
