I'm building an off-grid shed, that will have 800W+ of aluminum framed solar panels installed on a metal roof.
For simplicity, I will have the panels connected to a Bluetti/Ecoflow power station.
From the power station, I want to connect one of the AC plugs to a small sub-electrical panel that will have 3-4 breakers installed for my AC outlets, lights, appliances, etc. in the shed.
From what I've read, power stations have what they call a "floating ground". I know each state has its own regulations, but generally speaking, when it comes to the grounding side for a system like this, do I only need to run a grounding wire from my solar panels to a grounding rod in the ground, and that's it?
Or, are there other things that typically need to be done?
Thanks!
