How do I properly ground a 12V off-grid solar system?

From what I''ve read the general consensus for 12V DC off-grid systems seems to be that you should run a ground wire from components such as the Inverter and MPPT Charge Controller to the DC negative bus bar, and

Does a CB radio chassis need to be grounded?

Eventually all the grounds in the vehicle end up at the same place anyway, at the negative side of the battery. So if I run the radio''s DC ground to a nearby screw in the dash, and run the radio chassis ground way down to the frame somewhere, far away from the DC ground connection, electrically this is still the same.

How to ground DC 12V battery, charge controller and solar panel?

$begingroup$ For the reference of future viewers: if you do want to ground a system like this, beware how you do it.

Of course, the controller doesn''t care what you connect to earth ground... but in a "positive common" system, the (+) legs of the battery, load, and solar panels

This is against code because it creates a second ground path. The better option would be to simply ground the cabinet to a water pipe or bring your ground wire all the way back to the service panel. Your metal air lines should be grounded as well and the cabinet could be "bonded" to it. Electricity does not take the easiest path -it takes any path.

6 FAQs about [How to deal with the grounding of DC battery cabinet]

Should substation DC battery rack metals be bonding/grounding to the substation ground grid?

One: Substation DC battery rack metals should be better without bonding/grounding to the substation ground grid, because during the fault the substation area elevate on potentials so the grounding may affect the battery functionality.

Does a cabinet need to be grounded?

If the cabinet frame is painted, the paint must be removed from the fixing point. Hinged installation plates or doors, if there are electrical devices on them, must be grounded and PE connected. All hinged installation plates and doors have to be grounded by a separate cable. The hinge does not provide reliable grounding.

Should the negative terminal of the battery be bonded to the rack?

Secondly, if the negative terminal of the battery is bonded to the rack, the rack should be separately earthed and not through the sub station ground grid. Ur fear of ONE, will occur if done other wise. Dickson. There is peace in silence and achievement in plans.

Do I need a grounding cable if my cabinet is painted?

If the cabinet is painted, all components and installation plates should be grounded via a cable to the grounding busbar. Body grounding does not replace a protective earth connection. PE conductors are always required from the PE terminal of the device to the PE busbar if there is body grounding or not.

How to ground a control cable screen?

Run wires along the metal surface. The cable screen grounding must be as close to the control connections as possible. It is also beneficial to ground the control cable screen to the cabinet frame in the inlet. Here you can see the proper way to ground the control cables as was instructed in the previous slide.

Does body grounding replace a protective earth connection?

Body grounding does not replace a protective earth connection. PE conductors are always required from the PE terminal of the device to the PE busbar if there is body grounding or not. The cross section of the grounding busbar or cable has to be at least half of the cross sectional area of the supply cable.
