MOUNTING

Mount the controller near your battery securely using the holes provided on the enclosure’s ﬂanges or

with a means appropriate to the application.

• Mount near the battery (for lead-acid versions only, use within 0.3 m (1 ft) of batteries. See Caution,

p.2).

• The GVB-8-WP can be mounted in any orientation on the ﬂoor or wall. We recommend a position

in which all labels are clearly visible.

• Do not mount in direct sunlight or near a source of heat.

• Allow adequate airﬂow around the controller to achieve maximum output capability.

• Connections should be made according to Article 690 of the National Electrical Code

(NFPA 70) or the standards in force at the installation location.

• Electrical connections may be made in any order; however the sequence below is

recommended.

Note*: The positive or negative battery cable must be protected by a fast-acting fuse or circuit

breaker of 10A or less, rated for the maximum battery voltage and connected close to the battery

terminal or power distribution block. This fuse will protect the wiring in the event of a short circuit

or controller damage.

Note: GVB is Negative Common,

"-Panel" and "-Battery" (both black

cables) are interchangeble.
