Mains Cable
This is pre-cabled and fitted with a mains plug. Ensure that the connection to the
mains supply is in accordance with the national wiring rules, and that the earth
connection is installed. The mains cable must be at least 10mm away from the
output cables. See Figure 1: Recommended Mounting Holes. All DC connections
should be wired according to Figure 3: DC Wiring Diagram for
BatteryPlus35SR
and
BatteryPlus35HA
and Figure 4: DC wiring Diagram for
BatteryPlus35PM
.
The plug must be accessible during installation. If this is not possible, an accessible
mains disconnection switch must be incorporated in the mains wiring where the
plug is connected.
Wire Size
DC cables must be sized to carry the maximum full load current and to not exceed
the system volt drop requirements. The following cable sizes are recommended.
When running wires, if they pass through panels or wall, ensure the wires are
protected from damage by sharp edges. The use of cable glands is recommended.
WARNING
If the supply cord is damaged, it must not be replaced and
the appliance should be scrapped.
