INSTALLATION
3.1
Inspect the packing carton for damage that may have occurred while in transit.
Immediately notify the carrier and your reseller if any damage is found. Retain the
package for future use.
3.2
Plug the power cord into a 3-wire grounded AC power wall receptacle. If an
extension cord must be used between the Inverter and the nearest utility power
source, use a 3-wire cable with rating not less than specified for the load level you
are going to connect, as stated in paragraph 8 of the specifications.
3.3
Connect the DC input power cord to the battery bank. Mind the battery bank’s
voltage and the polarity. The inverter must be as close as possible to the battery
bank to avoid the voltage drop on the power cord.
3.4
Connect your equipment to the Inverter. To ensure your home appliances are
powered and protected during utility failures, it is important to make sure that the
maximum power needed by the equipment is not exceeding the rated capacity of
the Inverter. Red LED will light up (LED version), or the “Over load” symbol will
show up (LCD version), and alarm will beep if the load exceeds the rated value of
the Inverter. If the overload is severe, the Inverter will shut down immediately to
protect itself.
