To make a permanent connection to existing AC wiring:
1. Install the required circuit breaker in the AC load panel (see Figure 3-6
on page 3–20 and Figure 3-7 on page 3–21).
2. Ensure AC power is turned off.
3. Remove the left-hand side AC wiring knockout from the front of the
unit.
4. Install a supplied strain-relief clamp in the AC knockout.
5. Locate the terminal block.
The two output terminals are labelled as follows:
•N (neutral)
L (line)
A separate screw is provided to connect the AC output ground.
6. Strip about 2 inches (50 mm) from the jacket of the AC output cable.
The AC output cable may be either solid or stranded, but must have
three conductors and sized as in Table 3-3 on page 3–14. (The AC
terminal block accepts wire sizes up to No. 10 AWG.)
7. Strip approximately 3/8 inch (10 mm) off the insulation of each
conductor.
8. Run the AC cable through the left-hand side strain-relief clamp and into
the wiring compartment.
9. Fasten the Ground wire to the grounding screw.
10. Using the 1/8 inch slot screwdriver, loosen the wire attachment screws
on the terminals.
WARNING: Shock, fire, 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. Do not connect the output leads of the inverter to any incoming AC
source.
Important:
The applicable installation code may not allow you to run the AC
IN and AC OUT wiring through the same AC knockout.
