Torque Table
All wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA 70. All power conductors interfacing to the PV-100208 should be sized in
accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70 and local codes. Large
gauge wire must have a minimum bend radius dependent upon the wire gauge
(refer to the National Electric Code, Article 373-6B). Take care to keep the wire
bundles away from any sharp edges which may damage wire insulation over time.
Xantrex Technology recommends using 250 MCM, 105 degrees C, minimum, cop-
per wire for all connections to the PV-100208.
CAUTION
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Ventilation Considerations
Maintain a minimum of 6” clearance in back and minimum of 12” in front and both sides of the PV-
100208 for proper cooling fan operation.
Installation
1. Move the PV-100208 into place. Lift the PV-100208 from beneath the lower enclosure with a
forklift as shown in
Figure 3-1
. (See following page.)
2. Anchor the lower enclosure feet to the floor with a 1/2” anchor bolts.
3. Install all conduits needed for cable entry in the shaded areas of both AC and DC interface enclo-
sures as shown in
Figure 3-2
. (See following page).
