I'm replacing a xantrax POC inverter and wow I'd it a bad install. First the batteries are all grouped as one bank and here is the inverter dc switch that was on the battery stud. Then 2 more were the ac feed to the main panel. Instructions were to shut off all power on the ac side. Then turn off the charger breaker. Then on dash switch to power line one. Turn on second switch to power line 2 Wire was home grade 12 gauge for the ac. Worked like Bidets border security. Attachment DeletedI put in the new victron inverter and wired it properly. What else did I find? More to upgrade for safety for sure

It's not melted into a black pile of ooze.

It was on a xantrax unit so it wasn't putting out any power.
