Odysseus, expert on the Siren's call
In retrofitting a small sailboat, I will be buying my first Inverter. Probably a GoWISE that Will recommends.
I notice some brands tout GFI AC outlets. I'd have to add one to the boat external to the GoWISE. What is the safest concepts and are the ramification of doing this on a boat and in a more general question how does one ground a fiberglass boat? I've read various things about copper plates in the water and large gauge wiring to the mast, but I think this has more to do with lightning protection. And even with that, there are just as many people that say that kind of grounding is a waste of time OR even than such wiring is dangerous.
