Battery And Inverter 10 commandments
1. Beware of the thunder and lightning that Lurketh in charged batteries, lest it cause thee to bounce upon thy buttocks in a most unseemly manner. Cause thee no spark or short among them.
2. Again, again I say unto you, Underestimate Not the energy of a shorted battery, for if thou so doest, thy friends will surely be buying beers for thy lady and consoling her in certain ways not acceptable to thee.
3. Suffer thou any DC installation doth comply with ABYC and or suffer Mightily Of The Plague of Lawyers who will separate thee from thy worldly goods .
4. Remember to put in Parallel or Series only Batteries of the same type, age, size, weight and state of charge or suffer thou a Righteous Ream Job by thy Supervisor, and the miraculous Shrinking of thy Wages.
5. Tarry thou Not amongst fools that mixeth different Types of Batteries in a Bank, for they are disbelievers but make question of them if their Airplane hath different size wings also.
6. Take care when thou takest the measures of high-voltage circuits, or thou shalt incinerate both thee and thy test meter. Verily, thou hast but small value and can be easily replaced, but the loss of a fine test meter bringeth much woe and lamenting back at the shop.
7. Bypass thou not fuses, breakers, or safety devices, nor wire thy vessel if thou be color-blind for this can arouse any Survivors to Wrath, and thou shalt suffer severe beatings and Loud Doubts on thine Ancestry, Present Worth and Future Prospects.
8. Covet not thy neighbors true RMS meter and Suffer thou learn well the common, neutral, negative, ground, earth and bond. Amen, Amen I say unto thee, the Smoke pouring out your ears cannot be putteth back and thy Brain worketh not a toss without it.
9. Bedeck thyself not with jewelry or watches whilst working with Acid and Lead substances lest thou compete with Quasimodo on the ugly scale and thy Wife will have no further use for thee except for thy Wages.
10. Give lasting peace, even amongst the Unbelievers, by letting them wire up their own Electric Toilet.
The old ones are the best, Paul
