One of the cheaper but reliable solutions will be an enclosed power supply with a fixed voltage rating, a passive PFC and a high enough current rating to healthily meet our needs. . It''s meant to sit on the bench and

Free QuoteDriving down the road my internally mounted voltage panel with a selection rocker switch ( display house or chassis battery voltage) indicates the chassis battery at 13 volts. As soon as I stop, battery voltage indicates under 11 volts. Tonight, with shore power plugged in, the chassis battery is indicating under 11 volts.
Free QuoteThis can be used to start a weak chassis battery by a "jump start" from the coach side using the dash switch. Or the more common use is letting the engine alternator automatically connect chassis and coach, to let the coach battery get some charge as we drive!

Free QuoteJust like a battery, we are free to connect the floating power supply to other power supplies. For example, we can stack (series connect) two of the 36 VDC B&K 1550
Free QuoteHowever I would agree since the 1950''s when it was found the chassis could be negative with respect to the battery but positive with respect to the spark plug most cars and wagons have connected the negative to the chassis as it causes less corrosion than with a positive chassis so negative is considered often as earth.

Free QuoteWhen I finished my conversion I had the electrical side inspected and signed off by a local electrician. One of the things he asked me to do before he would give me a certificate was to remove the earth cable which I had installed from the leisure battery to the chassis. I am now wondering if he was right as I am having to renew the battery and it is less than two years

Free QuoteNote that this whole design is obsolete. A 60 Hz transformer like that makes this more expensive than a modern design called a switching power supply. That transition was gradual between about the late 70s and the early 2000s, but as

Free QuoteWhen connected to shore power and with the house battery switch turned ON, the chassis battery is being charged at the same time as the house batteries. The Trickle Charger connects the house batteries to the chassis battery when shore or generator power is supplied to the converter or when a solar panel is charging the house batteries.
Free QuoteThe "GND" lug (usually green) on a power supply is connected to the power supply chassis and to the AC plug ground. This connection, typically, is not related to the
Free QuotePower Grounds The ECU features multiple power ground pins. They should be earthed directly to the chassis. These allow current from the injectors, coils, DBW system and low-side switches to flow back to ground (battery negative).
Free QuoteBy putting the ground at the source (the battery), it''s much more stable, especially if you also have the positive going straight to the battery. If you ground it further
Free QuoteThe ground terminal is the equipment chassis and AC Equipment ground feeding the power supply. In a DC system, you can float the output or make it a grounded system. One primary reason you would use a grounded
Free QuoteRegardless, whatever current is left over is expected to flow out the ground pin of the micro-controller. In essence, the supply current is returned to the supply through the ground connection. So when your power supply is a battery, it makes perfect sense to connect the (-) side of the battery to your system''s ground pin.

Free QuoteMillions of RVs have no provision to charge the chassis battery from shore power. Millions of others come from the factory with a B.I.R.D. circuit which does that job.

Free QuoteWith all due respect to the other posters, they have DPs so their answers may or may not apply to your gasser. On my ''15 Tiffin gasser, the chassis battery does NOT charge when hooked to shore power. However, it is also obvious that Tiffin has changed the Spyder system on gassers over the last couple of years, so that may change things.....
Free QuoteAs an RV owner, you know that most RVs have a battery for the motor, just like a car battery. But they also have a battery, or even multiple batteries, to power the inside of the RV, too. This has some people wondering: What''s the difference between the RV coach vs. chassis

Free QuoteIn effect, biasing DC-output to the same voltage as the chassis, or alternatively, connecting the DC+ output terminal to chassis (producing a negative biased supply rail). This depends on the capability and design of your power supply. Most commonly, one would connect the DC-output terminal
Free QuoteWhen the inverter/charger is inverting and acting as a power supply, it will have to make an independent MEN link. But when it is feeding through a generator or grid supply, the incoming supply has to have the MEN link instead of the inverter/charger. Victron inverter/chargers contain an internal ground relay.
Free QuoteIt is possible to use a single ground to the engine block but if this is the case, a second ground wire from the block to the frame or chassis is required. This is not the preferred method of grounding since multiple grounds to the frame, and body, and engine will provide a more secure ground. Is the car battery connected to the chassis?
The car battery should be connected to the chassis of the car as well as the body of the car and the engine block. There are countless places to make a ground connection on the car, but I will address some of the best and most common places. My battery had a wire from the negative terminal connecting to the alternator bracket.
A connection is commonly made between the body and the chassis as well. A common wire can be run directly to the starter, or close to it mounted to a bolt on the engine bell housing. Multiple connections are required because different parts of the car are insulated from each other. Such as the engine from the chassis and the chassis from the body.
A secure ground connection is required between the negative battery terminal to the body of the car as well as directly to the engine. A connection is commonly made between the body and the chassis as well. A common wire can be run directly to the starter, or close to it mounted to a bolt on the engine bell housing.
A chassis ground is needed in conjunction with the ground to the engine because although the engine is bolted to the frame, the engine mounts insulate the engine from the chassis with rubber mounts for vibration reduction.
The path from the power source to the loads, in an automobile, is through copper cables whereas the return path is through the low resistance steel chassis. The advantages of such a system are: Cost savings in copper cables to the extent of 50%.
