18 Freedom HF Installation Guide
Basic Installation Procedures
Step 5: Connecting AC Output to an Existing AC Circuit
Do not connect the Freedom HF to an AC branch circuit that has high-
power consumption loads.
The Freedom HF will not operate electric heaters, air conditioners, stoves,
and other electrical appliances that consume more than 1000 watts
(Freedom HF 1000) or 1800 watts (Freedom HF 1800).
A Xantrex-tested and approved GFCI must be connected to the Freedom
HF AC output, and on every receptacle connected to the AC hard wired
installation. Other types may fail to operate properly when connected to the
Freedom HF. Although you can reuse the factory-installed GFCI, Xantrex
has also tested and approved the following GFCIs for use with the Freedom
HF inverter/charger. See “Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs)” on
page 10.
FIRE, SHOCK, AND ENERGY HAZARDS
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.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious
injury.
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Do not connect any AC source (such as a generator or utility power) to
the AC wiring output of the Freedom HF.
The Freedom HF 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.
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or
damage other equipment.
FIRE, SHOCK, AND ENERGY HAZARDS
Make sure wiring is disconnected from all electrical sources before
