4. Fuses and breakers:
Properly sized fuses and breakers should be installed between each important junctions, i.e. PV <->
Controller, Controller <-> Battery, Battery <-> Inverter, and Inverter <-> AC loads. As a general rule of
thumb, follow the formula below when selecting a properly sized fuse/breaker:
Amp = 1.25 * Isc of c
Amp = 1.25 * Isc of cAmp = 1.25 * Isc of c
Amp = 1.25 * Isc of circuit current

DO NOT use cross-over or any other type RJ45 cable as this can cause monitor to function
incorrectly or cause damage!
6. Battery:
Connect the battery terminals to the battery terminals on PIP-LC and make sure polarity is correct!

NOTE:
for 6KW/8KW inverters, battery resistor cable

battery resistor cable (see below) may be included for your
convenience. Be sure to apply it in between the battery and inverter for at least 5 seconds before
directly connecting the battery to your inverter terminal. This will help reduce the sparks during
