Each chassis is equipped with 14 GMT style fuse connections and an unfused bulk DC connection
located on the rear of the chassis
.
The GMT fused connections are made on “lugless” terminal blocks
with compression screws. The terminal blocks will accept wire sizes up to 12AWG.
The bulk DC connection may be used as a battery input or as an unfused bulk output. The connections
require a terminal lug (1/4” single hole lug with a max tongue width of 0.63” or less), such as
PANDUIT
part # LCA4-14-L. Size wires based on the total rectifier capacity and choose conductor size according to
