Step 5: Connecting AC Output to an
Existing AC Circuit
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK AND FIRE HAZARDS
n
Make sure wiring is disconnected from all electrical
sources before handling. All wiring must be done in
accordance with local and national electrical wiring codes.
n
A manufacturer-tested and approved GFCI must be
connected to the Freedom EX 4000 AC output, and GFCI
protection must be provided on every branch circuit
feeding a receptacle connected to the AC hard wired
installation. Other types may fail to operate properly when
connected to the Freedom EX 4000. See
Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) on page 14
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious
injury, or equipment damage
.
NOTICE
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
n
Do not connect any AC source (such as a generator or
utility power) to the
AC output wiring
of the Freedom EX
4000.
n
The Freedom EX 4000 will not operate if its output is
connected to AC voltage from a source, and potentially
hazardous or damaging conditions may occur. These
conditions can occur even if the inverter/charger/converter
is off.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment
damage.
Do not connect the Freedom EX 4000 to an AC branch circuit
that has high-power consumption loads that exceed its output
wattage rating.
The Freedom EX 4000 will not operate electric heaters, air
conditioners, stoves, and other electrical appliances that
consume more than its rated output wattage.

Lift the terminal lever.

Route to circuit breaker
2
Insert the wire fully into the open slot.
NOTE
: AC Output hole - install a
bushing (supplied) or a strain-relief
device.
3
Lower the terminal lever to secure the
wire in the slot.
To make a permanent connection to existing AC wiring:
1. Ensure AC and DC power sources are turned off, if not
already done from
AC Input Connections on page 20
2. Install the required circuit breaker in the
inverter/charger/converter distribution panel receiving AC
power from the inverter/charger/converter.
3. Remove the wiring compartment cover, if not already done
from
AC Output Connections on page 21
.
NOTE:
Use a screwdriver to loosen the captive nut panel screw.
4. Strip 10 mm off the ends of each of the wires (tin the
exposed copper wire with lead-free solder using a
soldering iron) in the AC cable (3+1G cable).
5. Remove the knockout and install the supplied ¾" bushing
on the AC input hole. Alternatively, you can install a ¾"
strain-relief device instead of the bushing.
6. Route the wires through the bushing (or strain relief
device).
7. Locate the Neutral, Ground and Line terminals on the AC
input terminal labeled as
L1
,
N
,
L2
, and
G
respectively.
8. Connect each AC wire into its corresponding terminal on
the no-tool cage clamp terminal block.
9. Make sure that each AC wire is matched and connected to
the Neutral (
N
), Ground (
G
), and Line (
L1
and
L2
)
connections.
10. If a strain-relief device was installed, tighten the strain
relief clamp to secure the wires.
11. Replace the wiring compartment cover (using a #2 Phillips
torque screwdriver - see WARNING), if you are finished
with connecting all the AC wires in the unit.
