Installation
1.
Remove the 1/2” knockout on the AC Output Connection (see Figure 1-4,
Item 15)—use a utility knife to cut through the round slot.
2.
Discard this knockout and install a 1/2” strain relief in the AC OUT opening.
You may need to
fi
le the opening edge to
fi
t properly.
3.
Run a 2-conductor plus ground cable through the strain relief on the AC
OUT opening. Refer to Table 3 for minimum wire size and overcurrent
protection required for the AC output wiring.
4.
Remove two inches of the insulating jacket from the AC cable, and then
separate the three wires and strip about 3/4” of insulation from each wire.
5.
Using approved AC wire connectors, connect the outgoing Hot Out,
Neutral Out, and AC Ground wires to the MM Series’ AC wires colored red
(HOT OUT), white with black stripe (NEU OUT), and green (AC GROUND)
respectively. Gently pull on the wires to ensure they are securely held
together, and check to see that no bare wire is exposed.
6.
After making the AC output connections, secure the AC output cable by
tightening the strain relief.
7.
Connect the outgoing AC wires to an AC load panel equipped with
overcurrent protection (e.g., circuit breakers).
The AC output wiring in the inverter should be complete. Before reattaching
the AC access cover, ensure all AC wiring connections are correct and secure.
2.6.6 Ground-Fault Circuit Interruption (GFCI) Breakers
If installing this inverter in the wiring system of a mobile application (RV/
marine/truck), a GFCI may be installed to protect some branch circuits powered
by this inverter. In compliance with UL standards, Sensata has tested the
following GFCIs and has found that they function properly when connected to
the inverter’s AC output (there are others on the market that will work just
as well):
Shock Sentry
TM
#XGF15V-SP, Leviton Smart Lock #8899-A, Hubbel
#GF520EMBKA
WARNING
: Risk of electric shock. Use only the GFCIs [receptacles
or circuit breaker(s)] speci
fi
ed in this manual. Other types may fail
to operate properly when connected to this inverter.
2.6.7 Inverter Warning Label
The warning label (see Figure 2-8) is provided to inform all personnel that an
inverter is installed in your electrical system. Af
fi
x this label in a clearly visible
location at the electrical panel that is being powered by the inverter. This is
necessary because it might be falsely assumed that the panel is no longer
“hot” after AC power has been shut off—when in fact power may actually still
be available due to the inverter automatically powering the panel.

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
PN: 62-0002 Rev B
This electrical system is equipped with an Automatic Generator
Starting (AGS) device and/or an inverter. Disconnect all AC and
DC power to the AGS and/or inverter before performing any
service to the electrical system. Failure to do so can result in
shock causing serious injury or death.
