Hardwire Instructions EW-3000 / EW-4000
First make sure the unit is completely disconnected from any power source and that themain
power is completely OFF. Begin by unscrewing the front plate which is located under the 2 x AC
outlets at the front of the inverter.
You will then see the 3 connecting terminals, as illustrated below:
H: HOT
N: NEUTRAL
E: EARTH (GROUND)
The recommended Gauge wires are:
EW-3000: Jacketed No. 10 Gauge copper 2-wires
EW-4000: Jacketed No. 8 Gauge copper 2-wires
Some installation codes are required and we recommend use of oil-resistant cables rated for
damp or wet locations. We would strongly recommend having this installed by a certified elec-
trician since these wires will have a live current, if installed improperly, can cause a fire or shock
hazard.
Once installed, have the wires come through the front plate by removing the middle circle of
the front plate. Once all connections are secure and properly installed and front plate is secured
back onto the front or the inverter, you can then turn the inverter back ON to test out the AC
connection. Make sure to test the AC output from newly installed wires with a TRUE RMS volt
Meter prior to operating from the Hard Wire connection.
