That seems very odd that that pos cable(to the breaker/ bmu) does not reach. I've done partial 2.0's before and that lead could reach any pos battery terminal, regardless of the shelf it's on. Am I missing something? Maybe 48v HI leads are different. I heat shrinked the unconnected busbar length as a sanity check, but I doubt they would ever tilt to potentially short on the chassis.
