I recently installed two 6000xp's, 15k Ethos battery system, and purchased the EG4 chargeverter. It's not fired up yet as I'm finishing last few cable connections.... and need to set up the comms.

My question is can I connect the chargeverter to the inverter where the battery cables are connected to the inverter?

also.... the Ethos batteries have those little grounding screws.....I don't find info in the docs on what should be done with those.... just daisy chain them with some 16 or 18 awg and carry it to the inverter earth ground bus..... or to both inverter busses....? thanks....

I recommend installing an external bus for connecting the Chargeverter and battery, rather than connecting the Chargeverter directly to the battery terminals on the inverter.

@jared Would EG4 possible consider marketing a quick connect busbar with enclosure?  I have seen one out there and that are pretty nice, but I think I would trust one branded and tested by EG4 over it.

@joel-brodeur It's definitely something that is being considered.
