Wiring the AC Bypass Assembly
All models other than the “empty” GSLC are equipped with a maintenance bypass assembly.
As needed, the GSLC can be equipped with a bypass assembly using the GS-IOB-120/240VAC
or GS-IOB-230VAC accessory kit as appropriate. The accessory kit should be installed
according to its own instructions. Once installed, it can be wired by following the steps shown in
Figure 37 or Figure 38 .
The operation of the bypass assembly is discussed on page 47. A series of GSLC diagrams
with the bypass wiring (as well as the rest of both the AC and DC systems) are shown beginning
on page 49.
These drawings show the utility grid circuit connected to the bypass assembly. This is the
method used during factory installation. However, either the grid or the generator circuit may be
used. A prewired assembly may be changed. Remove the first source from the bypass
assembly and then wire the second according to the instructions. Connect the first source
directly to the terminals as shown in the drawings beginning on page 49.
NOTE
: Only one AC source may be bypassed with this assembly, even if two sources are present.
WARNING: Shock
Hazard or Equipment Damage
Bypassing multiple sources will usually connect the sources to each other,
which may damage one or both sources. It can otherwise result in power being
routed to inappropriate places.
The internal GSLC bypass assembly cannot be used if multiple inverters are in
use. See page 47.
Figure 37 Maintenance Bypass Wiring (split-phase)
To wire the GS-IOB-120/240VAC
after installation:
1. On the disconnect for the AC
source that will be used during
bypass, install a wire from the
upper pole as shown by 1.
Connect it to the upper pole
of the inverter bypass switch
as shown by 2.
2. From the same disconnect,
install a wire on the lower
pole as shown by 3. Connect
it to the lower pole of the
inverter bypass switch as
shown by 4.
3. On the right side of the inverter
bypass switch, install a wire on
the lower pole as shown by 5.
Connect it to the right side of
the lower pole on the output
switch 6. Install a second wire
between the upper poles of
each switch as shown by
7
and 8.
