Polarity lights in AC means that it thinks the wrong input lead is earthed ie neutral.

If polarity detector is showing that there is no neutral earth bond it may not be a bug but a feature, as standard the EU10i would not have an earth neutral bond.

Otherwise I can not see why your detector thinks there is a polarity reversal.

Coleman furnace

Reverse polarity means the power wires coming to the furnace are connected backwards. The black wire should the hot ( 120 volt line) . The white wire should be the neutral. The green should be the ground. Check these connections and test them to make sure they are correct. You should get 120 volt reading between the black and white.120 volts between the black and green and 0 volts between the white and green. Hope this helps.

Wiring diagram for installing a tv on a boat

Depends on whether this is a 12 Volt TV or a 120Volt. If a 12 volt, then fused and direct to battery. This is done this way as you do not want any other circuit to feed through it. You may want to add a diode to insure that if this is a unit with its own batteries, there is no reverse draw.
If a 120Volt, you need a power inverter which is also isolated from other systems. For shore power 120Volt, there should be a circuit panel and it may have open taps.

On my central air inside unit I have a red light flashing constantly.(reverse polarity) How do I do that....It seems to be a Goodman.

Hi, to reverse polarity means your electric power coming into the indoor unit is wired backward is all. It should be 120 volts coming in, so find where your power cord wires come in to the unit, a black and a white, they should plug into the board, and just switch them around, nothing to it!! Unplug the unit first, or shut off the breaker. This will solve your problem, as the 2- wires are just reversed.

AUDIOCODES MP-118 FXO

Hi, I am using Audiocodes MP-118 FXO too
Man, check the Reverse Polarity.

1st.- Go to Protocol Management
2nd.-Go to Advance Parameter
3rd.- Go to General Parameter
4th.- Go to Enable Polarity Reversal and select ENABLE
5th.- BURN and RESET

You have FAS calls, because Reverse Polarity is disable.
