AC Connections
You can plug your AC loads directly into the receptacles on the inverter
front panel. Output power to each receptacle is limited by a circuit
breaker to 1500 Watts (15 A).
You may also make a permanent AC connection via the AC knockout.
This connection must be made in accordance with applicable electrical
codes. If you are not familiar with the applicable electrical codes and
wiring practices, we recommend you have the inverter installed by a
qualified electrician.
Connecting the Chassis Ground
The inverter has a lug connector labelled CHASSIS GND on the rear panel
as shown in Figure 3-4. This lug is used to connect the chassis of the
inverter to your system’s DC grounding point as required by regulations
for some installations. Follow the guidelines in “Grounding Locations” to
connect the inverter’s chassis to the ground.
Use copper wire that is provided with green insulation. Do not use the DC
Ground Lug for your AC grounding.
