Negative of the battery wrongly connected to the Positive DC input terminal of the
inverter) will blow the external / internal DC side fuses. If the DC side fuse is blown,
the inverter will be dead. The Green LED marked “POWER” (2, fig 6.1a) will be
switched OFF and there will be no AC output.
INFO
Reverse polarity connection is likely to damage the DC input circuitry. The
i
internal fuse(s) should be replaced with the same size of fuse(s) used in
the unit. If the unit does not work after replacing the fuse(s), it has been
permanently damaged and will require repair / replacement (Please read
Section 11 - “Troubleshooting Guide” for more details).
CAUTION!
Damage caused by reverse polarity is not covered by warranty! When
!
making battery connections on the input side, make sure that the polarity
of battery connections is correct (Connect the Positive of the battery to
the Positive terminal of the unit and the Negative of the battery to the
Negative terminal of the unit). If the input is connected in reverse polarity,
DC fuse(s) inside the inverter / external fuse will blow and may also cause
permanent damage to the inverter.
