Z -RANGE INSTALLATION MANUAL
Wiring
Before connecting the DC cables, please ensure the polarity of the connections are correct.
Note that it is required to have a DC disconnect between the battery and the inverter.
DC Connections
The Amphenol connections on the battery can only sustain 100 A output. There are two
different ways to connect the battery in parallel.
It is recommended that the disconnect be 1.25 x Rated current.
Wiring methodology #1:
Connect all the batteries to a common busbar. Each battery can produce its maximum
recommended output current, with this methodology. This methodology allows each battery
unit to produce its maximum recommended output current. Connect the provided DC cables
to the top DC post of each unit, and the M8 lug to the common busbar. Figure 4 depicts the
connection methodology.
