Installation Precautions

Key Installation Points
•
Observe proper polarity when connecting batteries.
Reverse DC polarity
will result in damage to the Freedom 10.
•
Do not backfeed the AC output of the inverter with incoming AC power.
Double check all aspects of your AC wiring for the possibility of backfeeding.
A backfeed will cause significant damage to your unit.
•
Do not connect the AC input to the AC output.
In effect, this would be
plugging the battery charger into the inverter. This could occur if the Freedom
10 is connected to the entire leg of a circuit breaker panel, then a circuit
breaker on that leg is used to feed the battery charger. This will cause the unit
to oscillate on and off when the unit is in inverter mode.
•
Always use properly sized wire and connectors
, keeping in mind that
considerable amperage flows in the DC circuit. Fusing the positive DC cable
is required.
•
Keep the Freedom 10 out of the elements and out of direct contact with
water.
Remember that the unit is a piece of electronic equipment and treat it
accordingly.
•
Mount the unit as close to the batteries as possible
but not in the presence
of flammable fumes or in an enclosed battery compartment.
•
Do not bolt the unit down until the AC, remote, and ground wiring is
completed.
