WARNING

Do not combine the 12V model with 24V battery or the unit will 

be destroyed immediately. 
Operate with the inverter without a proper ground connection 

may cause an electrical safety hazard. 
Damage caused by reversed polarity is not covered by the 

warranty. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position 

before putting the battery in. 

3-3. AC Safety Grounding

During AC wiring installation, AC input and output ground wires are 

connected to the inverter.  The AC input ground wire must be connected to

the incoming ground from AC utility source. 

The AC output ground wire should go to the grounding point for your loads 

( for example, a distribution panel ground bus ). 

3-3-1. Neutral Grounding (GFCI’S): 

110V models

The neutral conductor of the AC output circuit of the 

Inverter is automatically connected to the safety ground during inverter 

operation. This conforms to National Electrical Code requirements that 

separately derived from AC sources (such as inverters and generators) 

which have their neutral conductors tied to ground in the same way as 

the neutral conductors from the utility tied to ground at the AC breaker 

panel.  For models configured with a transfer relay, while AC utility 

power is present and the Inverter is in bypass mode, this connection 

(the neutral of the Inverter’s AC output to input safety ground) is not 

present so that the utility neutral is only connected to ground at your 

breaker panel, as required. 

Thor Mftg. 

has tested the following GFCI-

properly when connected to the output of the Inverter. 

WARNING

Never connect the inverter’s output to the AC distribution grid, 

such as the household AC wall outlet. 
It will damage the Inverter.
