Pure Sine Wave Inverter GPSW-150 GPSW-300 ___________________________________________________________ 4.0 Installation 4.1 Where to Install The inverter should be installed in a location that meets the following requirements: Do not connect the inverter and another AC source (generator or utility power) to the AC wiring or AC loads at the same time. Doing so will destroy the inverter and void the warranty, regardless whether the inverter is switched on or off.
Pure Sine Wave Inverter GPSW-150 GPSW-300 ___________________________________________________________ Loose connections result in excessive voltage drop and may cause overheated wires and melted insulation. A reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in the inverter and may permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity connection is not covered by the warranty. 4.
Pure Sine Wave Inverter GPSW-150 GPSW-300 ___________________________________________________________ 4.3 Cables 4.3.1 GPSW150 – 12 V / 24 V Use the included 3 feet (0.91 m) of #14 AWG wire and automobile DC plug. When used in conjunction with an automobile DC socket, ensure the DC socket fuse in the automobile fuse box is rated to the inverter load.

Important: As per the national electrical code, electrical panels in mobile applications must not have a bonded neutral. If the inverter is supplying power to equipment or a panel where the neutral and ground are connected (bonded), a ground loop will occur.

A switch may be placed between the two terminals and the inverter can then be turned off using the switch. A ⅛” (3.0 mm) precision screwdriver is recommended for tightening the two terminals. It is recommended that a #18 gauge wire no longer than 150 feet (45.
Pure Sine Wave Inverter GPSW-150 GPSW-300 ___________________________________________________________ 7.0 Troubleshooting 7.1 Television interference Operation of the inverter can interfere with television reception on some channels. If this situation occurs, the following steps may help to alleviate the problem. Ensure that the chassis ground lug on the back of the inverter is securely connected to the ground system of your vehicle, boat, or home.
Pure Sine Wave Inverter GPSW-150 GPSW-300 ___________________________________________________________ Problem and Symptoms Possible Cause Solution No output voltage, red LED blinking slowly Low input voltage Recharge the battery. Check the connections and cable. Inverter switched off No power to inverter Turn the inverter ON. Check wiring to the inverter. Car lighter fuse open Replace the fuse. Internal fuse open Have a qualified service technician check and replace.
