AC Wiring Confi gurations
The following table provides the different wiring con
fi
gurations for installing and connecting the
AC conductors to and from the inverter (refer to Figures 2-9 to 2-11 for installation drawings
showing these con
fi
gurations).

Reason to Use
Have a 120 VAC
source.
Requires a separate
inverter sub-panel.
Want dedicated
charging and
dedicated pass-thru
while the AC source
is on.
Requires a separate
inverter sub-panel.
May need to power
large 240 VAC
loads
(requires 120/240
VAC input source).
Requires a separate
inverter sub-panel.

Note
1
– AC source is from either the utility/grid power (i.e., shorepower) or an AC generator.
Note
2
–
If two legs @120 VAC are used, they must be from the same source (i.e., common
neutral) and not in phase with each other. You can use a neutral and two legs from either a split-
phase (120/240 VAC) source or from a three-phase (120/208 VAC) source.
Note
3
–
The ‘Maximum Input Breaker Required’ is used to protect the inverter’s internal AC input
circuit, which is rated for 50 amps for each input.
Note
4
–
The ‘Minimum Wire Size (AWG)’ is based on the ‘Maximum Input Breaker Required’ size
and the ‘Maximum Output Capacity (Standby Mode)’ current. If the wire size is reduced, then an
appropriately sized over-current protection device (i.e. fuse/circuit-breaker) would need to be
installed to prevent damage to the reduced sized wire.
