3 INSTALLATION
3.5 AC Safety Grounding
Residual Current Devices (RCD)
Certain installation codes and/or government regulations require the installation of a RCD.
Redarc has tested a number of commercially available RCDs and found that they functioned
properly when connected to the output of the Inverter.
NOTE: The AC output ground wire should go to the grounding point for your loads (for example, a
distribution panel ground bus).
3.6 Inverter First Operation
To operate the power inverter, use the ON / OFF switch on the Front panel to turn the power on.
The power inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads. If there is several loads, turn
them on separately after the inverter is “ON” in order to prevent OVP resulted from the surge
power.
1. Set the power switch to the “ON” position, the buzzer will send out “Beep” sounds at this
point. The inverter will now perform self-diagnosis, and the LED indicators will also appear
various colors. Finally the buzzer will “Beep” again and the Input Level and Status LED
indicators will turn “Green” in color, then the inverter starts to work successfully.
2. Set the power switch to the OFF position, the inverter will stop and all the LED’s go off.
3. Set the power inverter switch to the ON position and turn the test load on. The inverter should
supply power to the load. If you plan to accurately measure the true output R.M.S. voltage of
the inverter, a true R.M.S meter must be used to measure the output of the inverter.
3.7 Maintenance
To keep your inverter operating properly, there is very little maintenance required.
You should clean the exterior periodically with a damp cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and
dirt. At the same time, tighten the screws on the DC input terminals.
