CAUTION: To safety operation and regulation compliance, it’s requested to install a separate DC
over-current protector or disconnect device between battery and inverter. It may not be requested
to have a disconnect device in some applications, however, it’s still requested to have over-current
protection installed. Please refer to typical amperage in below table as required fuse or beaker size.

CAUTION!! Do not apply anti-oxidant substance on the terminals before terminals are
connected tightly.
CAUTION!! Before making the nal DC connection or closing DC breaker/disconnector,
be sure DC (+) must be connected to DC (+) and DC (-) must be connected to DC (-).

AC Input/Output Connection
CAUTION!! Before connecting to AC input power source, please install a separate AC breaker
between inverter and AC input power source. This will ensure the inverter can be securely disconnected
during maintenance and fully protected from over current of AC input. The recommended spec of
AC breaker is 10A for 1KW, 16A for 2KW, 32A for 3KW.
CAUTION!! There are two terminal blocks with “IN” and “OUT” markings. Please do NOT-misconnect
Input and output connectors.

WARNING:
Be sure to that AC power source is disconnected before attempting to hardwire it to the
unit.
4. Then, insert AC output wires according to polarities indicated on terminal block and tighten
terminal screws. Be sure to connect PE protective conductor ( )rst.

5. Make sure the wires are securely connected.
CAUTION: Important
Be sure to connect AC wires with correct polarity. If L and N wires are connected reversely, it may
cause utility short-circuited when these inverters are working in parallel operation.
CAUTION: Appliances such as air conditioner are required at least 2~3 minutes to restart
because it's required to have enough time to balance refrigerant gas inside of circuits. If a power
shortage occurs and recovers in a short time, it will cause damage to your connected appliances.
To prevent this kind of damage, please check manufacturer of air conditioner if it's equipped with
time-delay function before installation. Otherwise, this inverter/charger will trig overload fault and
cut off output to protect your appliance but sometimes it still causes internal damage to the air
conditioner.
PV Connection
CAUTION: Before connecting to PV modules, please install separately a DC circuit breaker between
inverter and PV modules.
WARNING! All wiring must be performed by a qualied personnel.
WARNING! It's very important for system safety and efcient operation to use appropriate cable
for PV module connection. To reduce risk of injury, please use the proper recommended cable size
as below.
Typical Amperage Gauge Torque Value

Operating Voltage Range 15~18Vdc 30~32Vdc
Max. PV Array Open Circuit Voltage 55Vdc 70Vdc
2. Max. Power Voltage (Vmpp) of PV modules should be close to best Vmp of inverter or within Vmp
range to get best performance. If one PV module can not meet this requirement, it's necessary
to have several PV modules in series connection. Refer to below table.
