I have done a bit more research, as when my knowledge gets stretched I like to fully understand.
I need to point out here, I would never question the safety on the AC side, but I would have felt safe fitting what I consider a 'clean' DC system in, above bonding, prior to this.
I found the following article, written in absolutely plain English. Which explains the current systems, also
AC system
AC and DC system combined
DC system with no AC on the boat
AC system, generator, with no shore power connection.
Well worth the read. I would not have considered the charger as a possibility to mix the voltage.
I would highly recommend reading this one.
