Operation
Connections
The Mojave inverter has two sets of AC source connections, which are labeled
G
RID
and
G
EN
.
Two different AC sources can be connected during inverter installation.
In addition, it has connections for batteries, which are used both to supply power for operation, and
to receive charging. Finally, it has AC
L
OAD
terminals. These are used to operate the critical
protected loads. They are also used for AC coupling operation. See page 35.
NOTES:
The battery charger uses the same programming and settable limits regardless of which
source is used. It does not have independent charger settings on each input.
For wiring instructions and more information on terminal hardware, see the
Mojave
Inverter/Charger Quick Start Guide
.
For more information on inverting, charging, and other functions, see the descriptions of
the
Inverter
tab on page 33, the
Grid
tab on page 39, the
Battery
tab on page 44, and
the
Generator
tab on page 46.
Each distinct function or operation is accompanied by a symbol representing the inverter and that
operation, as shown in Figure 14.

Normally the Mojave inverter senses AC power at the
G
RID
terminals. This point is shown as
B
in
Figure 15. Once installed, the current transducers (CTs) will move this sensing point to another
location, usually the main grid input
A
. See page 39 to enable the CT.

These items represent the power present at the AC source,
the output to the AC loads, any DC functions (inverting,
charging, etc.), and the grid (or generator) relay. Arrows on
each symbol represent power flow. The symbols may have
other features depending on the operation.

With no CT, power sent to the grid is measured at
B
. If no
grid export is permitted, no power may be sent beyond
B
.
The only supported loads are the protected loads at
C
.
With CT use, any restriction on export is controlled at
A
.
This permits power to flow as far as the main panel, shown
by arrow
D
. It allows the inverter to support more loads on
the main panel while grid-connected.
