Comprehensive Protection

XS400 is designed to meet UL 458 and CSA C22.2 No. 107.1 safety standards and it is compliant with FCC Class B.

XS400 comes equipped with numerous protection features to guarantee you safe and worry-free operation.

Protection feature	This protection feature…
Low voltage indication and	Protects the battery from becoming completely discharged. The
shutdown	Low Battery light indicates that input voltage is low (10.7 volts). If
	the input voltage drops below 10.3 volts, the XS400 shuts down
	automatically and the Inverter ON light turns off. The XS400
	recovers automatically when the input voltage comes up to about
	12.6 volts.
High voltage shutdown	Protects the XS400 by disabling the AC output when the input
	voltage rises to 15.3 volts or more. The AC output is enabled when
	the input voltage drops to 14.5 volts.
Over-temperature	Disables the AC output of the XS400 when the internal temperature
shutdown	rises to unacceptable levels due to higher ambient temperature or
	overloading. The XS400 recovers automatically when it cools
	down.
Overload protection	Disables the AC output of the XS400 if the appliance connected to
	the inverter exceeds the 400 watt rating of the inverter. The XS400
	will have to be reset. (See “Resetting After a Fault or Shutdown” on
	page 3–9.)
Supplemental circuit	Trips and disables the AC output when a current in excess of 7.5
protection	amps is drawn from the XS400. The supplemental circuit protector
	can be reset to enable the unit to operate again after clearing the
	overload condition. (See “If there is a short circuit, the
	Supplemental Circuit Protection button trips.” on page 3–9.)
Short circuit protection	Disables the AC output of the XS400 when a short circuit is applied
	on the AC output. Once the short circuit is cleared, the XS400 will
	have to be reset. (See “Resetting After a Fault or Shutdown” on
	page 3–9.)
Ground fault circuit	Trips and disables the output of the XS400 when a ground fault
interrupter (GFCI)	current is detected. The output can be enabled again by resetting the
	GFCI, once the ground fault is cleared. (See “Ground Fault” on
	page 3–9.)
