1. Multiply the running Active Power rating {Watts} of the appliance by this factor to
arrive at the Continuous Power rating of the inverter for powering this appliance.
2. for Photographic Strobe / flash Unit, the surge power of the inverter should be > 4
times the Watt Sec rating of photographic strobe / flash unit
5.3 connection anD operation – inverter/cHarGer moDe
Please refer to Section 5.1.1 for description of this mode
5.3.1 connection and Switching on procedure:
1. Make sure that the maximum single / combined AC side load is less than 1500W.
Please refer to the Sizing Chart at Table 5.1 for guidance
2. Disconnect all AC side loads
3. Switch OFF the Inverter using the Inverter ON/OFF Switch “INVERTER” (3, Fig 3.1)
4. Switch off the battery Charger using the battery Charger oN/off Switch “CHArG-
ER” (2, Fig 3.1)
5. Connect 12V batteries to the Battery Terminals (11, 12 in Fig 3.1)
6. As the Inverter ON/OFF Switch “INVERTER” (3, Fig 3.1) is in OFF position, the follow
-
ing will be seen:
• The Inverter will be in OFF condition
• The Green LED “INVERTER” (8, Fig 3.1) will be OFF
• Transfer Relay K1 will be in de-energized condition and, through its normally
closed (NC) contacts, the Line Sockets of the AC outlets will be connected to the
Line conductor of Grid input for AC pass-through.
• Ground Switching Relay K2 will also be in de-energised condition and, through
its normally closed (NC) contacts, the Grounding Sockets of the two AC outlets
will be connected to the metal chassis of the unit
7. Switch ON the Inverter using ON/OFF Switch “INVERTER” (3, Fig 3.1).
• Transfer Relay K1 will be energized, its normally open (NO) contacts will close
and will transfer connection of the Line Sockets of the AC outlets from Line Con-
ductor of the Grid input to the Line conductor of the Inverter output.
• Ground Switching Relay K2 will also be energized, its Normally Opened (NO)
contacts will close and the Grounding Sockets of the two AC outlets will get dis-
connected from the metal chassis of the unit and get connected to the internal
GfCI circuitry
