You sure have put a lot of effort in this project & I hope in the end it will meet your needs.

Questions if I may:

Is there a way to bond the neutral on a "floating neutral" generator?
If my circuit panel is bonded does it make a difference?
What sensitive equipment could a "floating neutral" damage?

Thank you
