Table 2 – Input Current

 

 
1.2.1  AC Input Connections 
Before beginning any work inside the charger 

enclosure ensure that all incoming AC supply and DC 

load wires are de-energized. Verify that no voltage is 

present inside the case by using a voltmeter at all 

input and output terminals. Check that the source 
voltage and frequency match the charger front 

nameplate specifications. Select wire size, using 

Table 3 to the right. 

 

NOTE: These are recommended sizes.  All National 

and Local Wiring Codes must be followed
