Sterling charger question

Post by B.J »

I've finally got my Sterling charger set up and I'm getting mixed results. It's an A2B and I followed drawing 2 for the full installation in the manual which shows the 2nd leisure battery not earthed. What's happening is that battery's not getting used and not getting charged.
Should I just earth it to the first leisure? Why do Sterling show it as un-earthed? Sorry but I can't find an online drawing for it so unless you've done one this is a bit dull :?

I earthed just one battery on mine. Connected sterling to one battery, linked that battery to the second and then earthed the second battery. This ensures when charging and using the batteries that both batteries work together

I'm earthing the first battery but not the second so my second battery is out of the loop. I'll try it your way
