❐Wire stripper
❐4 mounting screws or bolts and appropriate tools
❐3/8” wide slot screwdriver for DC input and chassis
ground terminals
❐3-conductor (2-conductor-plus-ground cable) AC output
cable sized appropriately for load according to applicable
installation code(s). In the NEC, CEC and RV
applications, this is No.14 AWG.
❐Crimp connectors and appropriate crimping tool for AC
output wiring and ignition lockout wiring (if twist-on
wire connectors are not appropriate for your installation).
❐DC cable, sized appropriately for load per the applicable
installation code(s). In NEC, CEC and RV applications,
this is No. 8 AWG if copper conductors rated 60 °C –
90 °C are used.
❐Terminals for connecting the DC cables to the battery, as
well as appropriate tools for those terminals (for
example, crimping tool, hex-key, etc.).
❐AC and DC disconnects and over-current protective
