No grounding terminal, but I have an extra mounting hole I can add a grounding lug to.

inverter I messaged the company asking about grounding and they sent me this photo: Manual doesn’t mention grounding, I assumed this was just for wiring the 30a AC out, but are they saying this is for equipment ground as well? charge controller The mount is the aluminum heat sink at rear. I...

I see now, the manual for the charge controller states: If grounding is required, please make sure to ground the device on the negative. How would that work? For the inverter, would I drill an additional hole and add ground screw for equipment ground? Also, the inverter AC out shows open...

piggybacking on this as my situation is similar: solar array to shed with charge controller and inverter. charge controller and inverter do not have ground locations. Do I have this correct: I connect lugs and #6 ground wire to all panels, run it along with the pv wires to shed, install a...

I'm trying to wrap my head around what I need for grounding. As everyone's system is different, I'll give specifics for mine. Completely off grid, not connected to house power in any way. I'm growing my system from small (12v) to medium (48v) and want to address any safety concerns. Currently I...

great explanatory video! Is it yours?

I recently switched from 12v to 48v and have 4 of the djlbermpw 12v 100ah in series. They’re performing well with 3.2kw inverter, staying well balanced. I bought a balancer for them but haven’t connected yet. I think I’ll get a couple of the eco worthy 48v 50ah and parallel them. Right now it’s...
