Choosing Wire Gauge
Use Table 2 and Table 3 to determine the appropriate wire gauges. Avoid unnecessarily long runs of either AC or
DC power lines.
Before working on electrical equipment, first determine there is no live power! Double check power
connections and all battery terminations.
DANGER
Avant de manipuler les équipements électriques, veillez à ce que le courant soit interrompu. Vérifiez
soigneusement les branchements à la source de courant et aux bornes de la batterie.

Making AC Connections on Terminal Block 1 (TB1)
After determining the wire lengths and gauges, make the AC wiring connections to TB1. (Refer to the Block Dia-
gram in Figure 1.) Use spade terminals, and torque the screws to 8 +/−1 inch/pounds. To make connections to
the terminal blocks:
