Using a Portable Battery Bank for Complete Off-Grid Power - The Full Install

There are a lot of way to power your off-grid cabin/home, and each require a different installation. The Bluetti AC500 is really a home backup device, but with some creative wiring it can be used as a primary power source without any issue. The overall install is very basic, but I did run into a lot of difficulty finding good advice for a proper earth ground. As far as I know, the earth ground should be made at the battery its self, but with this device that is not possible. Grounding at the panel worked perfectly well. The only other change I could have made would be to bond the neutral and ground at the battery. By simply bonding ground to neutral within a plug with achieve the same result, but I am not sure which would be more correct. Either way, this setup is working perfectly as is. I am happy to say that Destination Adventure viewers get 5% off. https://bit.ly/3Db68SL Follow this link and use code Destination5 If you have been enjoying this channel, and would like to help support the upcoming projects and videos, please consider taking a look at the Patreon page or the Merchandise line.
