Hi All,
hopefully an easy question.
I'm currently installing a Zig CF8 into my homebrew camper, have got to the leisure battery connections and was about to connect the negative battery post to the chassis with an earthing strap, but there doesn't seem to be anything in the Zig manual about this. should I just leave the connection from the negative straight to the zig or does it need grounding to the chassis too? Hope that makes sense!
Cheers,
Ben

Re: Zig unit install question
i hard wired mine to the zig and it works fine. just make sure you fuse it all correctly and use the correct sized cable

Cool, cheers, that'll save a few extra minutes anyway.
Got all the right sort of cable all ready to connect up now then, wish me luck!
