Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters

INSTALLATION

WARNING

Do not connect incoming AC from any source to the AC output of the inverter/ charger. This is known as back-feeding and will damage the unit and void the warranty.

occur when power is applied to both inputs. The charger can draw up to 27 Amps on one leg of power and the transfer switch can pass up to 30 Amps from the other leg of power.

Single Input: Both the battery charger and the transfer switch may be fed from the same AC input. In this case, connect both pigtails together, black to black, white to white and green to green.

This allows up to 60 Amps of AC power to be brought in on a single cable. Up to 30 Amps is available to the loads, with the balance available to power the battery charger. A single cable should be protected by a 60 Amp breaker or smaller, and 6 gauge wire should be used.

AC Output: On the Fleet Power 1000, AC output is available at the GFCI outlet mounted on the unit. On the Fleet Power 2000, AC output is available at both the GFCI outlet and at the AC output compart- ment. The AC output for the Fleet Power 2500 is available at the AC output compart- ment only. When installing the Fleet Power 2000 and 2500, feed the 3 conductor AC output wire through the strain relief and

connect in the same fashion as the AC input wires.

If you are not connecting the hardwire output wires (Fleet Power 2000 only), make certain they can not cause a short circuit to the wiring compartment. Tug firmly on each connection to make sure they are secure. Check these connections first if the unit is not operating properly.

Carefully tuck the wires into the AC wiring compartment. Replace cover plate.

In order to conform to the NEC, certain branch circuits must be equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Please consult the code or a qualified electrician for details. Any such branch circuit must be protected by a circuit breaker consistent with the GFCI rating. Underwriters Laboratories has tested the following GFCI, and its use is recom- mended. Receptacle Type:

Pass & Seymour

Catalog Number 1591-RW

Rated: 15 Amps at 120 Volts AC

Fleet Power 1000 and 2000 inverter/ chargers provide an integral GFCI outlet which is protected by a circuit breaker. This GFCI outlet does not protect the hardwire AC output. The hardwire AC output is protected by a non-GFCI circuit breaker on the Fleet Power 2000 only. The first outlet from the hardwire output should be GFCI protected to comply with applicable codes and standards.

The GFCI Receptacle is designed to protect from line-to-ground shock hazards which could occur from defective power
