    Array Grounding and Components Grounding

    I guess I will google what an N/G bond is. WZRELB, about the only thing I can understand from them is DO NOT connect it to your existing home grounding system. But my main question was, if I drove a rod into my yard near my offgrid system and connected the Inverter to it....would that work...

    Array Grounding and Components Grounding

    Add me to the confused pile. Totally off grid system. I have 6 panels ground mounted. I have a WZRELB 3000W 24v inverter. I can drive a copper rod into the earth nearby. I can run grounding wire from the panels and the inverter to the copper rod. Will that work? The inverter has a...

    Hello Good Folks, I now have 2x LIPULS 24v 200ah LiFePO4 I want them connected in Parallel to work with my 24v inverter. The manufacturer has verified connecting in Parallel is fine. You can see how I had my lead-acid battery bank connection setup before (upthread drawing). It shows I had the...

    No it was crudely wired with no balancing. That will certainly need to be done better if I spend money on Lithium. There are no bus or terminal blocks - if that is the correct term - but instead were directly wired from the CC. I will be looking to improve upon that and realize it created uneven...

    Please review my off-grid 24v setup to suggest best Lithium Battery upgrade

    Hello wise people. First-time poster. I foolishly never asked for help building the original, and decided I needed to ask for help before I drop $2k on new batteries. Q: Can I keep my setup, primarily as-is, and swap in some 24V Lithium battery solution that will best use the system's...
