DC isolators in larger BYD systems

Hi im designing a system with 2 parralell Quattro 15kW inverters linked to BYD pro batteries would you add DC isolators in between each of the batteries and the inverters? Doesnt seem to show them in schematics only fuses, im going to be using the lynx in, and lynx distributer so there will be individual fuses for each battery in and each inverter out. Thanks

It is good practice to use isolators, in some countries it may be a requirement. They make maintenance a lot easier.

Hi Jacko. I would. At least one into each of those Quattros. Those are substantial units, and the isolators will be too, just to accept the wire(s) size.
