installation. The National Electric Codes (NEC), local codes, and similar standards
outline detailed requirements for safe installation of electrical equipment. Installation
must comply with specifications for wire types, conductor sizes, electrical and
thermal insulation, branch circuit protection, grounding, and disconnect devices.
Princeton Power Systems cannot assume responsibility for compliance or
noncompliance to any national or local code. Princeton Power Systems cannot
assume responsibility for personal injury and/or equipment damage exists if codes are
ignored or misapplied during installation.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire, connect each AC circuit of the inverter only
to a circuit provided with branch-circuit over-current protection in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and the instructions in this manual.
(See
Table 3: AC and DC Overcurrent Protection Rating Requirements
in the
Wiring Instructions section of this manual).
Improper Use:
Princeton Power Systems cannot assume responsibility for personal
injury and/or equipment damage as a result of improper installation, use,
maintenance, reconfiguration, reprogramming, or other improper actions. An
incorrectly serviced or operated Inverter system can cause personal injury,
component damage, or reduced product life. Malfunction may result from wiring
errors, an incorrect or inadequate DC supply or AC grid connection, excessive
ambient temperatures or obstructed ventilation, or incorrect software configuration.
Keep the door closed at all times when operating the system. Additionally, keep all
guards, screens, and electrical enclosures in place when the system is operating.
Close the inverter enclosure and put all guards and screens in place before energizing
the unit.
Heat Hazard:
The cabinet should not be mounted on a combustible surface nor
should combustible materials be placed on or against the cabinet. The system should
not be installed in a confined space that prevents proper ventilation or allows the
build-up of excessive heat. A minimum of 12 inches of spacing clearance must exist
for proper cooling airflow into and out of ventilation openings. Keep vents and air
outlets clear of debris and provide proper airflow. Do not place or store any objects
on the enclosure roof
ESD Sensitive Components:
The inverter contains Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
sensitive components. Standard ESD control precautions must be followed when
installing, commissioning, testing, servicing, or repairing the system. Component
damage, component degradation, or an interruption in control system operation may
occur upon an electrostatic discharge event. Use anti-static wristbands when
servicing electronic components.
Locked Doors:
The inverter enclosure should remain locked at all times during
normal operation and should only be unlocked for maintenance by qualified
personnel. Enclosure keys should be stored in a safe place and should be accessible
to appropriate personnel only.
Electrical Connections:
Be sure that all electrical connections and connectors are
properly installed and connected with proper torque.
