"Hi guys,
I have spend few days searching over internet way how to do it in right way, found few sites , but all the sites saying that inverter supposed to be grounded to earth wire on boat... good, but where is going earth wire? to the water? to negative DC system? to clarify how I have prepared:
Negative side of engine start battery and battery for 12v boat devices , negative bus, engine, sterdrives, metal tanks and metal thing outside the boat - are connected together.
Separate battery for inverter which is not connected to any instalation on boat is connected straight to inverter.
Inverter has got built-in socket where I can plug any 240v device.
Inverter on chasis has got connection where I can connect wire to ground it. My question: where attach this wire? Without this for example when I connect any 240v device and I touch inverter chasis or metal case of microwave or anything , it KICKS...
Would be great if any of you could give me some idea or advice.
Thanks,
Sebastian"
