To make the AC output wiring connections:
1. Disconnect all DC and AC power sources from the Inverter 5000.
2. Install a dedicated AC load panel or an additional circuit breaker in an
existing AC load panel.
This circuit breaker must have a current rating based on the load
current the circuit will carry, and must be rated for 120 Vac branch
circuits. For installations subject to the US NEC, the required breaker
size is 50 A based on No. 8 AWG wire and the 4000 W continuous
output rating of the inverter.
3. Remove the screws securing the Inverter 5000 AC cover and remove
the cover.
WARNING: Shock hazard
If AC outlets are connected to the inverter AC hardwire terminal, the outlets must
be GFCI-protected.
WARNING: Shock hazard
Make sure wiring is disconnected from all electrical sources before handling.
WARNING: Shock hazard and risk of equipment
damage
Do not connect an AC source (such as a generator or utility power) to the
AC wiring output of the Inverter 5000.
The Inverter 5000
will not operate if its output is connected to AC voltage from
another source, and potentially hazardous or damaging conditions may occur.
These conditions can occur even if the inverter is off. If installing the inverter in a
system with another AC source (utility power or generator), an approved and
suitably rated break-before-make AC transfer switch must be installed
