I plan on installing one of these in next few years myself so have been reading with interest.
Here is what I have learned, there are several ways to accomplish this that will work. The best way may be stranded wire, but solid will work. I would also suggest checking connections on EMS annually to ensure things have not loosened up...
The more I read the better I like having my ems. Another place I keep an eye on is the converter stranded battery cable set screw lugs. It's surprising how hot they get even when tight. My PD hasn't been bad but I had a wfco for a short time and it seemed worse. You can only tighten it so much or its going to break.
It's a weak point in the engineering of it. imo
Seems like a crimped lug and a stud would be better. Just like at the other end on the battery.
But then again they are used in set screw lug applications all the time so it's a weak point on the board?
