Model: COMMANDER II AND COMMANDER II+
Version 1.0
Load Common (+ve):
all load common connections are made to the connectors
placed behind the circuit breakers. 2 sizes of common terminals are available, up to
4AWG/25mm
2
and 2 AWG/35mm
2
.
N
OTE
: cables smaller than 6mm
2
(10 AWG) should be terminated to the
4AWG/25mm
2
connectors to make sure of adequate clamping force.
Load Live (-ve):
Load Live cables are connected directly to the terminals at the top
of the circuit breakers. Load breaker terminals are sized to accept cables up to
4AWG/25mm
2
.
Load distributions that include a secondary load LVD (LLVD) are split into 2
sections to allow prioritization of the connected loads. Non-priority loads are
removed from circuit prior to the primary battery LVD operation to extend the time
of operation of the priority loads. Load distributions in systems without the
secondary LLVD are all removed from circuit together at the battery LVD
disconnect point.
Please refer to the specification of the system to determine which breakers are
priority and non-priority loads (if optioned).
N
OTE
: make sure all incoming cables have adequate strain relief.
STEP 5:
Connect the Batteries
Battery Common (+ve):
All Battery Common connections are made to the busbar
located placed behind the Circuit breakers. Accepts cables up to 1/0 AWG/55mm
2
.
Battery Live (-ve):
Battery Live cables are connected directly to the terminals at the
top of the circuit breakers. Battery breaker terminals are sized to accept cables up
to 1/0 AWG/55mm
2
.
N
OTE
:
make sure all incoming cables have adequate strain relief.
