NOTE: The U.S. requires conduit be used in this type of installation. Refer to the NEC and local
codes. Conduit fittings can be replaced with strain reliefs where code permits.
Refer to the table on the previous page for minimum recommended wire sizes.
Procedure
AC Input Wiring to Inverter
WARNING: DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CONNECTIONS FROM THE INVERTER IF THEY ARE
ALREADY CONNECTED.
ALL WIRING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED OR LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.
DISCONNECT THE MAIN BREAKER AT THE MAIN UTILITY BREAKER BOX.
Install a 60 amp circuit breaker in the utility service panel. This will serve as both an AC
disconnect and over-current protection.
Feed the HOT, NEUTRAL and GROUND wires (via conduit) from the inverter to the main
utility box. Leave several inches of extra wire at each end.
Make the connections to the inverter first. Wiring to the utility breaker box is performed after
all connections have been made in the inverter.
Connect the GROUND (green) wire to the inverters AC GROUND terminal.
Connect the NEUTRAL (white) wire from the main utility panel to the inverters NEUTRAL
INPUT terminal.
Connect the HOT (black) wire from the main utility panel to the inverters AC HOT INPUT
terminal.
Torque all connections to 16 inch-pounds.
