Step 8: Testing Your Installation
SHOCK HAZARD
Pressing the Inverter button to turn OFF the Freedom HF inverter function on display panel does not disconnect DC or AC input power to the Freedom HF. If shore power is present at AC input terminals, it will pass through to the AC output.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
There are two tests to be performed. The first test verifies that the Freedom HF is inverting DC battery power and delivering AC power to its output.
The second test is intended for installations where AC input and output is hard wired to the Freedom HF. This test verifies that the Freedom HF transfers from inverter power to shore power when shore power is present.
NOTE: Shore power
When you are ready to test your installation and operate the Freedom HF, close the DC fuse and Disconnect or the DC circuit breaker to supply DC power to the Freedom HF.

3. | Plug an appliance within the power rating of the inverter into the |
| |
| Freedom HF GFCI or an AC outlet hard wired to the Freedom HF. |
|
4. Turn the appliance on to verify that it operates.qualified If the appliance operates, your installation is successful. If your installation has AC input and output hard wired to the Freedom HF, proceed to “Testing
in Shore Power Mode”. | by | |
