Forum Discussion
Inverter owner manuals I have seen say do not use the inverter to run a distribution panel, but despite that, the inverter will run an RV's "whole house" no problem. Apparently, the warning is about distribution systems that are bonded such as in the stick house, but you can do it ok with the un-bonded RV main panel, or run a sub-panel with more than one circuit breaker
Vector inverter manual says--Do not bring the chassis ground around to the neg input of the inverter as a short cut to the frame (via that neg input wire to battery to frame). Like time2roll says, run the chassis ground to the frame directly.
Vector inverter manual says that chassis ground is for reducing RV interference with TVs and radios. I have had no problems with other inverter brands running them "whole house" (converter off) and without the chassis ground. Not saying everyone else would have no problems, no idea.
