Power Distribution Block Grounding
We are planning on using 6 40AMP CIM motors, but the problem is that according to the wiring diagram we should be grounding the CIMs in the power distribution block. Also according to the wiring diagram (and common practice) we can only use the 4 ports that are on the opposite side of the battery port. Since we need to ground those 6 CIMs and our breaker panel I was wondering if we could use the other 7 ports on the power distribution block to ground with.
I wasn't able to post on the Q&A because I didn't have our teams account password. Feel free to post this on the Q&A if you can. Thanks for any help.
