RNG Support, Why do the started kits include a POSITIVE ground PWM controller? Everything we tend to use is Negative grounded. I assume you can float the ground or Positive ground the unit. My concern is, if you do POSITIVE ground, when you connect an Inverter, and it has a NEGATIVE ground.... won't that be a problem? My system is all renogy except the inverter which is a Power Bright PW2300-12.
I was curious of the design for the PWM Positive ground system and why that is used?
I'm working on a few designs that are OFF Grid but have the flexibility to provide disconnect functionality of the Power company A/C and feed multiphase A/C from the OFF grid inverter. I didn't want to confuse matters with the "Positive Ground". From reading about your Solar controllers it appears the MPPT are negative grounded, a little more expensive, but may be a more robust controller.
thanks for you help! GoSolar!

Hello, We recently started selling our starter kits with negative ground controllers. You can still use positive ground controller in a negative ground system as long as you do not use the load terminals on that controller. All your loads will need to be connected to your battery bank. The MPPT charge controller is a much better controller than the positive ground PWM controller. O.C

So your saying you can you the positive ground PWM controller in a vehicle as long as you don't use the load terminals to draw current?

Hello Kal, Yes that is correct you won't be able to use a positive ground controllers load terminal while it's connected to a vehicle or RV. O.C
