Inverter Features

Introduction

Inverter Features

User Features	The inverter consists of the following user features.
	• The Inverter Control Panel provides a user interface for monitoring
	power levels, battery levels, and controlling the inverter functions and
	displays.
	• Four 120 Vac outlets on the front panel provide up to 1440 W
	(continuous) output power.
	• One 15 A supplemental protector provides over-load protection to the
	four AC outlets on the front panel.
	• One AC Indicator LED. This LED will illuminate whenever AC
	power is available, whether the unit is ON or OFF. See page 2–3 for
	additional information about this LED.
	• One PVGFP, ground fault protection fuse for safety when using solar
	and wind renewable energy inputs.

WARNING: Shock Hazard

The 15 A circuit breaker on the front panel is only connected to the four outlets on the front of the panel and only disconnects power to these outlets when activated. It does not disable output through the output terminals used for hardwiring. Therefore, power can still be available to loads connected through a hardwired installation.
