I have been reading up further on if I should 'ground' my inverter.
I have found so many mixed messages, though the overarching one seemed to be do NOT add a ground wire to the chassis of the car from an inverter. Partially because it could fry the rest of the cars electrics if an issue occurs.
However, in the manual for my specific inverter, it clearly states that it should be connected to the chassis.
So now I am unsure if I should follow the instructions or not. Are they badly written 'catch all' instructions, or should I take them as gospel. No idea.
Ultimately I just want to make my system as safe as possible.
I have included a picture of the instructions and of the make/model of the inverter. (PS-3000KAR) Giandel 3000w pure sign wave inverter.
