The deeper I get into my project the more questions I have. I am so grateful to have found a place where so many are knowledgeable and willing to share the knowledge.
My questions.
Inverter grounding.
Inverter is a GoWISE, 1500w. The manual states "The earth conductor is permitted to be 1 common size smaller than the DC positive (+) conductor (Example. DC += 2 AWG = 4 AWG)" Following this example, my 1/0 DC positive cable would suggest the use of 1 AWG ground cable. This inverter has a very small ground post, looks to be about a #10 all thread so I do not think the GOWISE suggestion is possible.
Victron Lynx Power In (Hack to add fuses).
What is the minimum size ground wire to run the chassis?
Victron Smart 12-12/ 30amp DC to DC Charger
I am using a 6 AWG power in cable protected by a 60amp fuse between the vans 12volt battery to the Victron charger and would like to include a quick disconnect for this single cable. Please suggest options for this connector.
Battery Cable Lengths.
System includes 2 SOK 100ah batteries wired in parallel. Positive cable will run from battery #1 through a class T fuse then to an on/off switch mounted on the Victron Lynx Power in. Negative cable runs from Victron Lunx Power in to shunt and then to battery #2. My question is must the pos and neg cable runs be the same length and should the length of class T fuse and length of the battery shunt be included in the length measurements?
Inverter Cable Lengths.
Both the Pos and neg cables runs from Victron Lynx Power in, to the inverter. Do these cables need to be the same length?
