Planning the Installation
This guide for use by qualified installers only.
AC Components
AC Input
AC input to the Freedom SW 2000 can be supplied from a single-phase
120-volt 60-Hz AC source such as the utility grid (power company), a
generator, or the output of a transfer switch.
AC Output
AC output from the Freedom SW 2000 is 120 Vac/60 Hz.
AC Loads
The Freedom SW 2000 is intended to power loads consisting of 120 Vac
appliances.
In Invert mode, the Freedom SW 2000 provides 120 Vac to loads connected
to AC output. In AC pass-through mode, the source connected to the AC
input is passed through (sometimes called bypass current or pass-through
power) to the load. Because of the way invert mode operates, only 120 Vac
appliances can be connected to the Freedom SW 2000 output.
AC Disconnect and Over-Current Protection Devices
To meet CSA, UL, and electrical code requirements, and to protect system
wiring, the AC inputs and outputs of the inverter/charger must be provided
with over-current protection on both the AC input and output. This
protection may be a circuit breaker or a fuse with a disconnect device (for
simplicity the following refers to breakers). Refer to your applicable
installation codes and the following requirements:
AC Input Protection
The breaker protecting the AC input of the Freedom SW 2000 must be
approved for use on 120 Vac branch circuits. The breaker must be rated at
no more than 30 amps. This single input breaker must provide the Freedom
SW 2000 with sufficient power for operating the battery charger including
pass-through power (to operate downstream AC appliance loads). The
Freedom SW 2000 does not have a power sharing feature. Refer to the
owner’s guide for more details on AC current that is required to charge
batteries.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not connect 240 Vac loads to the Freedom SW 2000 outputs. Doing
so may result in 120 Vac on exposed parts of the appliance.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious
injury.
