I need someone to help me respond to this if possible.

So what is the verdict?

It works!
They used a four-prong plug with neutral and ground separated. Landed the aGate ground in the box.
Have a feeling this is what Franklin is advising all around. But, I don't know.

I'm just glad it works.
Putting in a whole home surge protector.

What they likely didn't tell/show you is that they disconnected the ground from the truck.

That’s the easiest way to get around the ground fault. That’s what lots of us who have the powerboost have done. And now with my lightning that’s the same setup I have although now I have a whole house generac so not much need but it’s nice to have a backup for the backup.

Yep that's the most practical solution but you might trigger another reminder from someone on the forum about not being code compliant and the safety risks of disconnecting the ground.

Oh I’m sure the electric Karen’s will go nuts but the bottom line is that the system is still grounded. And the trucks system is sensitive enough that even without the ground of it senses anything off it will still trip the breaker.

I think you're correct, and, at the same time, we're left without updated codex for these very new situations.
I am still planning to get an isolation transformer set up to bring everything into total compliance. This current set up is for the outside chance that we get slammed by another hurricane up here in WNC.
