The EG4 6000XP can utilize either Lithium or Lead-Acid batteries. There is a combination of settings
that need to be changed depending on the battery type.
4.5.1 BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION
Note: For Lead Acid batteries, the recommended charge current is 0.2C
Follow the steps below to properly connect your battery wires.
Step 1: Place all breakers in the open (off) position before connecting or disconnecting wires. Ensure
that there is no DC voltage present with a voltmeter.
Step 2: Assemble battery ring terminal based on recommended battery cable and terminal size (see
table below).
Step 3: Connect all batteries as the unit requires.
Note: If using a battery rack, ensure that all battery connections are installed properly before
proceeding. Please refer to battery manual for more information.
Step 4: Connect your positive battery cable (RED) to the positive battery terminal (BAT+) and your
negative battery cable (Black) to your negative battery terminal (BAT-) with a torque rating of 4≈5 Nm
(≈36 in-lbs. - 45 in-lbs.) per connection.
Step 5: Be sure not to cross polarize, as this will damage the equipment.
Note: The recommended battery capacity of one 6000XP inverter is ≥200AH
The recommended battery cable and terminal size are as follows:
*115A @ 48VDC (AC), 125A @48VDC (PV)
