15. INVERTER (IF OPTIONED)
Click for REDARC Inverter User Manual
The H16 has an option to include a REDARC 3000W Sine Wave inverter. For information on
the correct operation of this please refer to the REDARC Inverter User Manual provided.
• To use the inverter, the changeover switch must be flipped to the inverter position
• All 240V power points inside the living area will then be powered by the inverter
• The 240V breaker switch for the inverter is separate to the mains inlet breaker. This is
in the driver side electrical locker area (refer to above image).
• Do not obstruct the inverter unit’s ventilation openings. Doing so may result in the
inverter overheating and ultimately damage the inverter.
• It will provide effective use of appliances if used conservatively. Be sure not to use too
many high-powered appliances at the same time or the protection system will turn the
inverter off.

WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. DO NOT EXPOSE THE INVERTER TO RAIN, SNOW, SPRAY, BILGE
OR DUST. DOING SO MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE INVERTER OR OTHER APPLIANCES
INSTALLED IN THE SYSTEM OR RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.
POWER POINTS MARKED “DUAL-SUPPLY” CAN BE SUPPLIED BY EITHER THE
EXTERNAL 240VAC POWER SUPPLY OR THE ONBOARD INVERTER. FOLLOW
INVERTER MANUAFTURERS INSTRUCTIONS TO SELECT THE DESIRED
POWER SOURCE. (EXTERNAL POWER SOURCE IS TO BE PREFERED WHEN
AVAILABLE TO CONSERVE HOUSE BATTERY POWER.)
Power points other than the battery charger power point rely on the inverter to either provide
240VAC power using the onboard battery as the energy source or to allow power to pass
through the inverter from the external power inlet. (The inverter manufacturer's manual
contains more information on this.) For inverters which have their input & output connected
by plug & socket, it is possible to bypass the inverter by unplugging the input & output cables
& mating them directly to each other. Doing so will allow power to pass through to all
downstream power points no matter the state of the inverter. This might be desired in the
unlikely event that there are issues with the inverter system & to do so is permissible.
HOWEVER, if the inverter is bypassed as described above, always effect the bypass exactly as
described. This is very important to ensure the external power safety switch is never bypassed.
The external power INLET must always be the source of external 240VAC power supply to
ensure a safety switch always protects all power points. Never introduce an external power
source directly to the plug or socket at the inverter.”
