Step 10: Performing Checks Prior to Initial Start-up
Before starting up your inverter, ensure these conditions are met:
❐ Chassis ground is properly installed

❐ Positive (+) battery cable is connected to the positive (+) battery
terminal through the DC fuse and Disconnect or DC circuit breaker
❐ Negative (–) battery cable is connected to the negative (–) battery
terminal
❐ Battery voltage is within the proper range for this unit
(10.3–15.3 volts DC)
❐ DC Fuse is intact (not blown)
Step 11: Testing Your Installation
When you are ready to test your installation and operate the TS400, close
the DC fuse and Disconnect or the DC circuit breaker to supply DC power

optional S400 Remote Switch is installed, turn the On/Standby switch
on the remote switch to the On ( ) position.
The green Inverter ON indicator illuminates.
2. Plug an appliance of 400 watts or less into one of the GFCI outlets.
3. Turn the appliance on to verify that it operates.
4. If the appliance operates, your installation is successful.
5. If the red Fault light illuminates, see “Troubleshooting” on page 4–1.
WARNING: Shock hazard
The On/Standby switch on the TS400 does not disconnect DC
