Planning Overview
1. Plan your installation carefully!
2. Determine if the installation will be softwired (plug-and-go) or
hardwired.
•
If hardwired, are there any special permits required.
3. Know your limits.
•
Know the limits of the loads to be attached to the system.
•
Know the limits of the input and output to the inverter and the
batteries.
•
Know the electrical and building code requirements for the
desired location.
•
Analyze the location for the PowerHub for access and adequate
structural support.
•
Measure the distances for the cabling and wiring.
4. Extract the PowerHub from its packaging material and inventory all
parts to ensure there is nothing missing.
5. Review all instructions and materials provided with all the
equipment.
6. Review all material provided with the batteries.
7. Review any material related to the installation of the renewable
energy components.
8. Collect all necessary tools and materials for the installation.
9. Prepare the location for the installation and position the components.
Important:
This unit is intended as an entry-level inverter/charger backup
system. To use it as a stand-alone power source, it is not required to do any
special installation procedures.
However, if your installation involves renewable energy (solar or wind
generators) or requires hardwiring for any reason, if you do not have adequate
knowledge of national and local building and electrical codes, do not attempt to
install this unit in a permanent installation. Consult your local renewable energy
dealer or qualified electrician for assistance.
