Guidelines for Routing the DC Cables
Follow these guidelines to ensure maximum performance.
• Do not attempt to use the chassis in place of the main bank battery negative
connection for grounding. The inverter requires a reliable return path directly
to the battery.
• To reduce the chance of radio frequency interference, keep the positive and
negative cables close together—ideally, held together by straps, loom, or
insulated clamps at regular intervals.
• To ensure maximum performance from the inverter, do not route your DC
cables through a DC distribution panel, battery isolator, or other device that
will cause additional voltage drops. The exception is the DC fuse and
Disconnect or the DC circuit breaker which is required at the battery to
protect the DC wiring.
• To help avoid damage caused by reverse polarity battery connection, it is a
good idea to mark each end of each cable to identify it as a positive (red) or
negative (black) cable before routing the wiring.
WARNING: Fire and shock hazard
Route the cables away from sharp edges that might damage the insulation. Avoid sharp
bends in the cable.
