Low voltage disconnect for inverter

[robstrom]

The Victron BP65 low voltage disconnect is installed.
The Samlex 1500 has a 3 position toggle (on/off/switch), as well as +/- to wire it.
In my case, can I wire the + from the load terminal of the LVD, and the - the inverter - post?
Will the low voltage disconnect switch the inverter off as well?
The inverter posts are the main points for positive/ negative cabling, the disconnect is downstream of it, as recommended by Samlex.
Thx

I believe you are describing this.

Battery (-) to inverter.
Battery (+) to inverter.
BP load (+) to inverter terminal block (+) wire.

If so, the BP should shut the inverter off.

That is correct.
Turns out the BP DOES shut the inverter off, essentially sees it as a 'load.'
Unfortunately, it also overrides the on/off switch on the inverter, creating an 'always on'.
I wired the same, but had to install a switch

Just adding some more examples of low voltage disconnects to the thread.

This company - inpower makes a variety of them.
