Installation

Step 8: Connecting Your Equipment to the GFCI Outlets

To connect your AC equipment to the GFCI outlets:

1.Turn the inverter’s On/Standby switch to Standby ().

2.Turn your AC equipment off.

3.Connect your AC equipment to the GFCI outlets in the front panel.

4.If you wish to connect more equipment, use a multiple-outlet extension cord. Ensure that the total power drawn does not exceed 400 watts.

Note: Ensure that the Reset button on the GFCI outlets is not tripped.

Important: If you have more permanent loads to connect to the inverter, Xantrex recommends that they be hardwired. See “Step 9: Hardwiring the AC Output” on page 2–19.
