INSTALLATION – INSIDE THE CAB 2-12
GROUNDING VERIFICATION
Grounding a mobile
power
inverter
is purely theoretical and has
nothing to do with conventional grounding. Grounding a mobile
power inverter
involves connecting its housing to the vehicle
chassis so that the
power inverter
can more quickly detect any
trace of voltage leakage resulting from a damaged 120 V device
or extension, or from a positive wire coming into contact with the
power inverter
or with the vehicle chassis.
If the
power inverter
is attached to a metal
plate in the cabin, its grounding is probably
adequate. We recommend checking it by
following these steps:
1. Using a test lamp, connect a 12 V power source to the grounding bolt on the back panel of the
power
inverter.
If the lamp comes on, the grounding is adequate.
