Samlexpower Evolution Series - Sizing of Wiring and Breakers - AC Input Side

SAMLEX AMERICA INC. | 53
SECTION 3 | Installation
up to AWG #10. Strip adequate insulation from the end of the wire (Fig. 3.11). Avoid nicking the wire when stripping
the insulation. Wire End Terminals have been provided (see Section 2.6, "Contents of Package") for rm connection
under the set screw. Insert the bare end of the wire into the barrel portion of the Wire End Terminal & crimp barrel
portion using suitable crimping tool (Fig 3.11). Use #12 AWG terminals for AWG #12 wiring for AC input and AWG
#14 terminals for AWG #14 wiring for AC output. Insert the terminated end of the wire fully into the terminal slot till it
stops. Tighten the screw rmly. Tightening torque for the screws – 7 to 12 Kgf*cm / 0.5 to 0.9 lbf*ft.

3.8.1 Table for Wire and Breaker Sizing - AC Input Side
Table 3.2 provides details of wire and breaker sizing for the AC input side.
AC input side wiring and breaker sizes depend upon the maximum continuous AC input current under various
operating conditions described in the succeeding paragraphs.
 When Grid input is available and the unit is operating in Charging / Pass Through Mode, the AC Input Current
will be determined as follows:
 AC Input Current will be equal to the sum of the AC Side Battery Charging Current and the Pass Through
current.
