Installation
Chapter 3, “Installation,” provides information on cables and fuses to help
you plan for your installation and provide procedures for installing the
inverter.
Read the entire chapter before beginning the installation procedures so
that you can plan an installation that is suited to your power needs.
Designing Your Installation
Before doing anything else, you need to determine how you are going to
use your inverter, and then design a power system that will give you
maximum performance. The more thorough your planning, the better
your power needs will be met. In particular, you will need to:
•
Be aware of installation codes
• Calculate your battery requirements
• Choose an effective charging system
• Choose an appropriate location
• Calculate the cable size for your inverter
• Select the correct fuses or circuit breakers
Study Figures “Configuration for Normal Loads” on page 3–2 and
“Configuration for Heavy Loads” on page 3–2 for an example of a setup
for normal or heavy loads in a vehicle. When you have decided upon your
configuration, then you can calculate battery requirements.
