Lion Energy LiFePO System Overview

Great setup. All quality components. Personally I like to have my charging (solar/grid) on the other side of the Class T and battery switch so I can disconnect the entire system but I see where you are going with this setup. One question. I didn't see any mention of grounding. How do you handle system and equipment grounding? Thank you for the video.

Thanks for the comment and question. My interest is primarily marine applications, and the ABYC has specific standards related to equipment grounding on vessels, none of which I mention or include in the demo bench. For example, both the inverter and the battery should should have case grounding lugs that are tied into the vessel's negative grounding system. Additionally, inverters (as a new source of power aboard) should have a neutral/ground connection when inverting. If in pass-through mode, there should be no neutral/ground connection - the only neutral/ground occurring at the shore pedestal or at the onboard generator. Lion's emphasis on portability/mobile applications - with the items in this video, anyway - often means that ground would be to the chassis of the vehicle. There are no grounding lugs on either the charger or the inverter, however. The addition of lugs would be an important safety consideration, for sure. All of my boat's onboard systems are grounded per ABYC standards and recommendations.
