Installation 

Hardware Options  

The three versions of the GSLC come with different components already installed.   

 

GSLC

, the “basic” or “empty” version, requires almost all components to be installed if they are needed.  

Instructions for this product begin on page 17. 

 

GSLC175-120/240

, the “AC only” version, requires certain components to be installed if they are needed.  

Instructions for this product begin with the DC shunts, on page 21. 

 

GSLC175-PV-120/240

, the “fully-loaded” version, has all components already present and needs only 

to have external wiring and devices added.  Users with this version can skip to page 27, where wiring 
is discussed.
