INSTALLATION

Note: The three neutral terminals are common to each other and can be used in any combination or order. In a residential application, it is often easier to only connect one AC neutral wire to the inverter and make the other neutral connections at a central point such as in the AC load center, etc. In mobile installations, the AC system must have the neutral physically isolated from the ground throughout the load distribution powered by the inverter. The SW Series Inverter/Charger does not include neutral to ground switching for the AC electrical system. This must be done externally from the inverter. See the NEUTRAL- TO-GROUND BOND SWITCHING (RV AND MARINE APPLICATIONS) section on page 27 for more information.

Before making any AC connections, make sure that the inverter is disconnected from the battery (or battery bank). Feed the wires through conduit fittings located on the left side or left bottom side of the inverter. (Note: Conduit fittings must be purchased separately and are required by code to comply with residential and commercial installations).

The AC wiring both in and out of the inverter must also be protected from short circuits and overloads by a fuse or circuit breaker. Consult the NEC or your local code for more information and for other wire sizes. Table 13 on page 132 gives suggestions for wire sizing. Follow the wiring guide on the circuit board inside the cover plate (see Figure 9, above). Connect the AC wiring as follows (from front to back when wall mounted):
