1.2.2 Output 

Connections

 

Before connecting the Battery and/or DC loads, it is recommended to apply AC power and set the configuration 

for the correct output.  See section 2.3 for the configuration instructions. Once the configuration is set remove 

AC power from the main breaker to the charger.   

Select proper size for the DC wiring from the wire size table above (Table 3). If the distance between the unit’s 

DC output and the DC load exceeds 10 feet, use the Power Cable Guide below to minimize the voltage drop 

across the wire distance.  

 

Figure 4 - ESCR 

 

1.2.3  Power Cabling Guide 
Use the following formulas and table to determine proper wire size for minimal voltage drop.

 

Table of Conventions 

CMA  

= Cross section of wire in circular MIL area 

A  

= Ultimate drain in amperes 

LF  

= Conductor loop feet 

MaxAmp  = Maximum allowable amperes for given voltage drop 

AVD  

= Allowable voltage drop 

K  

= 11.1 for commercial (TW) copper wire (KS5482-01) 

 

= 7.4 for aluminum (KS20189)

CAUTION: When connecting the DC cables to the 

battery, be certain the positive terminal of the charger 
is connected to the positive battery terminal and the 

negative terminal is connected to the negative battery terminal.
