Chapter 4: Auto-transformer and Backed-up 

Loads Panel Installation (for Backup)

The auto-transformer is used for backup power only, and is not mandatory if using Smart Energy 
Management applications only. Refer to the table on page 10.
The auto-transformer connects to the AC side of the inverter. Since the inverter AC connections are on 
its right side, it is recommended to position the auto-transformer to the right of the inverter to simplify 
wiring.
