INSTALLATION
4.5 BATTERY CIRCUIT BREAKER
The circuit breaker is a safety device designed to protect the
battery cables from high over-current faults.
1.
The circuit breaker must be mounted on the positive (red)
cable between the GP-MPPT-PRO-60 charge controller and
the batteries. (See Figure 4-N)
The circuit breaker should be mounted as close to
the batteries as possible. Go Power! recommends
using the 2 ft. positive (red) cable between the circuit
breaker and the battery bank.
2. Using 3 of #10 x 3/4” screws included, securely mount the
circuit breaker. (See Figure 4-O).
3.
Assemble the ring lugs of the positive (red) cables to the
circuit breaker. (See Figure 4-P).
4. Tighten the nuts holding the ring lugs to 75 in. lbs.
5. Connect the bare end of the 8 ft. positive (red) cable to the
GP-MPPT-PRO-60 charge controller. Cut excess cable length
as required. Follow the GP-MPPT-PRO-60 User Manual for

additional details and recommended torque and strip lengths.
6.
Connect the bare end of the 10 ft. negative (black) cable to the GP-MPPT-PRO-60 charge controller. Cut excess cable length
as required. Follow the GP-MPPT-PRO-60 User Manual for additional details and recommended torque and strip lengths.
7. Use the included tie-wraps to secure the cables together.
• This helps reduces the amount of electronic noise radiated by the kit.
• Ensure these paired cables run through the same hole(s) as they are routed.
8. Use the 3/8” white cable clamps to secure the cable to the RV.
4.6 GP-MPPT-PRO-60 CHARGE CONTROLLER
You will need the GP-MPPT-PRO-60 User Manual included in the kit to complete installation
1. The GP-MPPT-PRO-60 charge controller should be mounted within 10’ of the battery for optimal operation. The GP-MPPT-
PRO-60 is designed to be mounted vertically on the side of a wall in a weather tight enclosure.
The GP-MPPT-PRO-60 must be mounted indoors in a dry location - such as inside the battery compartment.
2. Follow the GP-MPPT-PRO-60 installation section in the User Manual.
3. Cut any excess length from the positive (red) and negative (black) 10 AWG solar cables, if required.
4. Strip 1/2” of insulation from the positive end the solar cable coming from the disconnect.
5. Insert the stripped end of the positive cable coming from the solar disconnect into the solar positive (PV+) terminal of the
primary GP-MPPT-PRO-60.
6. Repeat steps 5-6 for the negative (black) solar cable coming from the solar disconnect, but inserting the stripped end into
the solar negative (PV-) terminal of the primary GP-MPPT-PRO-60.
7. For the SOLAR-AE4 kit, skip steps 8-15.
8.
For the SOLAR-AE6 kit, repeat steps 3-6 for the second set of cables coming from the second CEP to the second GP-
MPPT-PRO-60.
