Measure the necessary length between the StorEdge Connection Unit and the battery for all cables.
The maximum distance between the battery and the inverter is 35 ft/ 10m, when using 16AWG/
1.3mm

for battery control.
l
Tie and wrap the cables to avoid pulling them out during mounting.
l
Be sure to adhere to all safety cautions and information in the battery documentation.

The battery connects to the DC side of the inverter. Since the inverter DC connections are on its left
side, it is recommended to position the battery to the left of the inverter to simplify wiring.
