Thanks for a good no-nonsense video.... Short chinese ferrules can be a common & tricky one to diagnose. Also worth mentioning is the limited range / connectivity of the Cerbo Bluetooth. There are some real cheap plug in Bluetooth Dongles recommended by Victron that are worth mentioning to your customers that use Ruuvi Temperature senses etc etc.... Thanks again. New Sub :)

Loose connection is prime.
Second is incorrect order of assembly, washers do NOT go between lugs and bussbars.
Last, is undersized conductors for the demands.
