BATTERY TERMINALS

Caution: Before connecting the battery cables to the inverter, verify the correct battery voltage and cable polarity using a voltmeter. The inverter is not reverse polarity protected. If the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the negative terminal of the inverter and vice versa, severe damage will result. If necessary, color-code the cables with colored tape or heat shrink tubing: RED for positive (+); BLACK for negative (-) to avoid polarity problems.

DC (EQUIPMENT) GROUND

This connection is used to connect the exposed chassis of the inverter to the DC grounding system. The terminal accepts wires from #14 AWG to #2 AWG.
