Somewhere in the system you have a hot side and a neutral line reversed. My suggestion is to take it back to the person you paid to install. But if you want to troubleshoot the installation of your Go Power Industrial Pure Sine Wave Inverter, # 34275013 yourself; start at the beginning of the circuit on your installation checking polarity at each connection point to discover where the inverted wiring issue is.

You do not state how you identified that there is a reverse polarity issue but if you are identifying this from an outlet at an end use point, then ensure you do not simply have the outlet installed incorrectly. The installation of the inverter may be correct.
