c.Then connect all the negative terminals to one another.

d.Connect the negative and positive output cables to opposite ends of the bank. Do not allow the output cables to touch one another.

e.Test the voltages at the output cables to help ensure that the battery bank is properly wired. If the voltage is higher than 13 volts, then part of the battery bank is likely connected in series (a negative terminal of one battery attached to a positive terminal of another) instead of in parallel. Carefully examine the diagram and correct the wiring before attaching to the inverter.

6.Turn the inverter’s Switch off.

7.Connect the output cables from the battery bank to the inverter.
