M4x35 (DIN 7996). Grounding Grounding MP-3735 is not technically required when installing a stand alone solar system. However, if required, common grounding of the negative of the PV array, battery and load control output is OK for negative earth electrical systems (such as a caravan or motor-home).

Meaning: Over voltage on the battery. Which means the battery is abnormally over charged. Remedy: replace the battery. Generally with an aged battery system, it gets higher voltage when charging due to the depreciation of the capacity. Replace the battery system to see if the problem still exists. Electrical products should not be disposed with household waste Please recycle where available...
