Ac oUtPUt connectionS - PSe-12275A
The Ac output connections (n, fig. 7.2) of inverter model PSE-12275A have three
insulated conductors – one blAck and one whITE for carrying current and one grEEn
for “equipment grounding”. The grEEn color “equipment grounding” conductor is
connected to the metal chassis of the inverter. These three conductors exit through a
pocket (n, fig. 7.2) in the front side of the inverter. These three conductors are used for
hard-wiring the inverter to a breaker panel. for drawing the full 2750w of power of the
inverter, the output conductors should be hard wired to a suitable breaker panel.
PSE-12275A is also provided with a separate plate (o, fig. 7.2) which has a nEMA 5-15r
receptacle (f) wired through a 15A beaker (p). This plate with the receptacle and
breaker fits over the pocket (n, fig. 7.2) through which the output conductors exit the
inverter. The nEMA 5-15r receptacle (f) can be connected to the three output conduc-
tors if the Ac power output is required to be drawn from the front panel of the inverter.
Please note that the neMA 5-15R receptacle is wired through a 15A breaker and hence,
the power delivered from this receptacle will be limited to 1500 watts only.

cAUtion!
the White current carrying conductor is not bonded to the metal chassis of
the inverter. Hence, when the metal chassis of the inverter is connected to the
earth ground, this White current carrying conductor will not be grounded to
the earth ground. the white conductor is, therefore, not a “neutral”. Do not
touch this conductor as it will be at an elevated voltage with respect to the
metal chassis / earth ground and may produce electrical shock!

for safety, the metal chassis of the inverter is required to be grounded to the earth
ground or to the other designated ground (for example, in a mobile rV, the metal
frame of the rV is normally designated as the negative dc ground). An equipment
grounding bolt with a wing nut has been provided for grounding the metal chassis of
the inverter to the appropriate ground.
when using the inverter in a building, connect a #8 Awg insulated stranded copper
wire from the above equipment grounding bolt to the earth ground connection (a con-
nection that connects to the ground rod or to the water pipe or to another connection
that is solidly bonded to the earth ground). The connections must be tight against bare
metal. use star washers to penetrate paint and corrosion.
when using the inverter in a mobile rV, connect a #8 Awg insulated stranded copper
wire from the above equipment grounding bolt to the appropriate ground bus of the
rV (usually the vehicle chassis or a dedicated dc ground bus). The connections must be
tight against bare metal. use star washers to penetrate paint and corrosion.
