Can a bus bar be used with a chassis ground

I am building a new electrical system using all Victron equipment. The multiple equipment calls for chassis grounding. Can I use a buss bar and a single cable back to the chassis to accomplish this.

Yes you can link your chassis earth to your negative buss bar.

Do choose the shortest earth route though.

And as always, if using a BMV/Smart Shunt, wire all loads/chargers on the LOAD/CHARGER side of the shunt..
