Installation Notes
Installing the Batteries
Warning: Batteries are very dangerous. Battery fault currents are 1,000s of amps. Please read
and adhere to the safety information provided with the batteries.
Safe practices when working with battery systems
–
Remove all conductive jewellery or watches before working on batteries.
Keep any conductive tools well clear of the batteries
Only use non-conductive or insulated tools when working on or near the batteries.
Double check the connection orientation of the batteries and battery links.
Before connecting any links between battery terminals, check the voltage between
those battery terminals to be zero using a volt meter.
Care MUST be taken when connecting the battery interlinks. Please note that the
lose end of the battery interlink is live and must be prevented from shorting to
other batteries or battery terminals.
NOTE: Ensure Main Battery and Pre-charge/Battery Sense circuit breakers are in the O / Off
position before making any connections to the batteries.
