OK, I am going to display my ignorance, but here goes.
Is the AC ground to earth connected to the frame? I think so but am not sure.
My understanding is that the AC ground to earth is connected to the case of the convertor via the plug. So it seems that there would be no need for an additional ground to earth via the frame.
Why is the DC negative wire also wired to the frame which is also part of the negative circuit of the 12V system?
Maybe it is important to connect the negative component of the DC system to the earth ground of the AC system?
Thanks for helping me understand this.
