AC Load and Signal Line Connection
AC Output Connector
This is a two terminal barrier strip for use with up to #12 AWG wire. The
two terminals, L1 & L2 are floating outputs, L1 or L2 can be grounded to
simulate a neutral conductor. The barrier strip will accept a maximum lug
width of 0.32 in. (8.1 mm). The recommended torque on the screw is 9 in-
lbs.
Load Wiring
When selecting load wiring, consider the following factors:
• Current carrying capacity of the wire
• Maximum wire length
• Maximum ambient temperature
• Noise effects on signal lines
Use the table below as a guide to help identify wiring requirements for
permanent connection to an AC distribution box. The distribution box
shall include a 2 pole appropriately rated circuit breaker in series with
each inverter used in an array of units. The guide below applies for up to
2.5m long load terminations. Consider other means such as bus bar
distribution for longer runs.
Important:
The following procedure should be used as a guide only. Ensure
that the installation complies with the specific wiring rules applicable to your
country or area of jurisdiction.
