DC Input and Grounding Cable:
• All DC cables require insulated multi-strand low resistance cable.
• The DC cables must be copper and must be rated 105º minimum

CAUTION
Use of smaller gauge cable or longer cable length may cause the inverter to shutdown under heavy
load and may also melt the cable insulation and catch fire. This could result in death or serious
injury. Choose of the cable size should also match with the rating of the DC fuse used.
Important:
The recommended cable length is limited to < 1.5m. This is due to the consideration of voltage
drop between the battery and the unit. Change to use a bigger size cable is needed if long cable
length is used.
ePOWER Inverter Chassis Grounding Connection:
DANGER!
The ePOWER Inverter chassis is to be grounded properly. Never operate the ePOWER Inverter
without proper grounding. Failure to do so will result in death or serious injury.
1. Connect the grounding cable’s ring terminal to the unit ground screw.
2. Connect the other side of the cable to the common grounding point.
Grounding Cable Size:
Important:
The unit is grounded through the ground stud located near the DC Input terminal and the
chassis of the unit has to be grounded properly before use.
• The unit has to be grounded with a minimum 10mm2 copper conductor.
ePOWER Inverter DC Input Connection:
CAUTION
Reversing the DC Input terminal will damage the unit and cannot be repaired. Damage caused by
reverse polarity connection is not covered by the warranty.
