Basic Installation Procedures

CAUTION: Reverse polarity

Improper connections (connecting a line conductor to a neutral conductor, for example) will cause the Freedom HF to malfunction and may permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by a reverse polarity connection is not covered by your warranty.

11.Insert the Line and Neutral wires into the corresponding terminals.

12.Tighten the wire attachment screws to a torque of 1.3–1.8 lbf-ft (1.76–2.44 Nm). Leave some wiring slack inside the wiring compartment.

Ensure you have maintained correct polarity and that there are no loose strands of wire.

13.Secure the cable by adjusting the strain-relief clamps.

14.Install the GFCI back into the front panel of the unit.

Alternatively, if you do not reinstall the GFCI, make sure that you cap the exposed wires and install a blanking plate to cover the space vacated by the GFCI.

15.Connect the outgoing AC wires to the AC load panel.
