Step 8: Testing Your Installation
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Pressing the Power button to turn the Freedom XC inverter to
Standby on the display panel does not disconnect DC or AC input
power to the Freedom XC. If shore power is present at AC input
terminals, it will pass through to the AC output.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious
injury, or equipment damage
.
There are two tests to be performed. The first test verifies that the
Freedom XC is inverting DC battery power and delivering AC
power to its output.
The second test is intended for installations where AC input and
output is hard wired to the Freedom XC. This test verifies that the
Freedom XC transfers from inverter power to shore power when
shore power is present.
NOTE : Shore power (pass-through) refers to the AC input power
from a utility grid, generator or external AC source.
When you are ready to test your installation and operate the
Freedom XC, close the DC fuse and Disconnect or the DC circuit
breaker to supply DC power to the Freedom XC.
