Installation

8.Secure cables in place using tie-wraps, P-clamps or cable straps according to electrical codes. Coil and tie any extra BTS or remote display extension cable.

9.The DC breakers may be closed or fuses inserted at this time.

Final AC Connections

To make the last AC connections:

1.Complete the installation by routing the AC cable to the AC source.

2.Connect the AC cable to the AC disconnect breaker and ground in accordance with the color codes on page 2–5.

3.Secure cables in place using tie-wraps, P-clamps or cable straps according to electrical codes.

Powering Up

Make one last check that all connections and connectors are secure.

The XC Series charger may now be powered up. Switch the AC power on at the source breaker. It is normal to see a 7-10 second delay while the unit powers up. During this time, the indicator lights on the onboard status panel and the remote display will not display any information.

At very low AC source voltages (for example, less than 105 VAC) the start up time will increase proportionally up to as much as 40 seconds.
