Xantrex Freedom XC 2000 User Manual

Basic Installation Procedures
36 Freedom XC Owner's Guide
Marine
Use stranded copper wire that is bare or has insulation rated
minimum 105°C, and connect it between the Chassis Ground lug
and the boat’s DC grounding bus or engine negative bus. For the
Freedom XC 1000, use a wire of gauge 3AWG minimum. For the
Freedom XC 2000, use a wire of gauge 1/0AWG minimum. See
regulatory references below.
Regulatory
references
For DC voltage systems under 50VDC in an RV installation, an 8AWG copper
bonding conductor would be acceptable for the inverter/charger enclosure ground
bonding only per UL458 §63.6; §30.10 standard [≤ 150 mV @30A connection, per
§63.9; §63.10] and per ANSI/RVIA LV code §2-5.1 Bonding Voltage Converter
Enclosures. The "house" battery system must, however, be ground bonded per
ANSI/RVIA LV code §2-4 Auxiliary Battery Grounding; and
For DC voltage systems under 50VDC in a marine installation, [UL458 §SA7.2]
a DC Grounding conductor shall not be smaller than one size under that required
for current carrying conductors supplying the device per ABYC E-11 §11.16.2 but
not less than 8AWG [USGC 46 CFR §111.05-31].
Step 7: Connecting to Port(s) on the
Freedom XC
Connecting to ACC Signal
The Freedom XC can be wired to inhibit inverter operation in the
absence of a vehicle’s (or vessel's) ignition control signal. This
feature can avoid unnecessary battery drain that would otherwise
occur if the inverter was operated without a charging source such
as the vehicle alternator.
To enable ignition control:
1. Ensure that AC and DC power are both OFF.
2. Ensure the vehicle’s ignition is turned to OFF position. It is
highly recommended to remove battery power by
disconnecting the vehicle's battery cables. Refer to the
vehicle’s user manual for proper instructions on how to
disconnect the battery cables.
3. Locate the vehicle's ignition control wire from the vehicle’s
ignition circuit. This wire must be fused appropriately at no
more than 5A. Refer to the vehicle’s user manual for
guidance.
4. Locate the ACC input (ignition signal input) terminal on the
right side of the connector. The left terminal is not used at
this time. See Figure 12
