15. Replace the wiring compartment cover by tightening the
captive nut panel screw. See the following electrical shock
hazard warning.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Use a torque screwdriver to tighten the captive nut panel screw to
5in-lb (0.56N-m) torque of force to ensure a proper ground
connection and a required tool access to the wiring compartment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious
injury, or equipment damage.
DC Grounding
To connect the DC ground:
1. The equipment grounding lug (DC ground lug) on the DC end
of the Freedom XC is used to connect the chassis of the
Freedom XC to your system’s DC negative connection or
grounding bus point as required by electrical regulations.
2. Use copper wire that is either bare or provided with green
insulation. Do not use the DC ground lug for your AC
grounding. See the AC wiring instructions in this section.
3. Follow the guidelines below that correspond to the specific
type of installation. These guidelines assume you are using
the DC supply cable and fuse sizes recommended in this
guide. If you are using different sizes, refer to the applicable
installation code for DC grounding details.
4. See Figure 7 on page 24 for the location of the DC ground
lug. Make sure to tighten the bolt on the DC ground lug to a
torque of 23in-lb (2.6N-m) of force. Apply an anti-corrosion
compound to the copper wire prior to connecting to the DC
ground lug.
Recreational Vehicle
Use 8AWG minimum-sized, stranded copper wire and connect it
between the Chassis Ground lug and the vehicle’s DC grounding
point (usually the vehicle chassis or a dedicated DC ground bus).
See regulatory references below.
