Multiplus 12/2000/8 chassis ground marine application

Hi

I’ve replaced a Victron Easyplus fitted to my boat with a new Multiplus 12v 2000/80 . Shore power earth to the vessel runs through a Victron galvanic isolator into the boat. Do I connect the chassis ground of the multiplus to the galvanic isolator , ship side, or to our ground plate fitted to the bottom of the hull?

Did you contact the dealer, that sold you the Multiplus, for design assistance? Proper grounding of a boat is a life or death situation. You must follow ABYC electrical regulations. You can also seek advice from a certified electrician, after they review your wiring diagram.
