Ground
If available, the chassis ground lug should be connected to a ground point such as a vehicle
chassis or boat grounding system. In fixed locations, connect the ground lug to earth ground.
The connections to ground must be tight and against bare metal. Grounding is highly
recommended for both when using the inverter in a mobile application, such as an RV, or in
a building.

Be careful of the positive and negative poles. Reversing the poles might cause
permanent damage to the inverter and will void the warranty.

The inverter is suitable for 12V battery bank systems ONLY. Not following the minimum
DC requirement will cause irreversible damage to the device.
NOTE
z
The input terminals of the inverters are embedded with large capacitors. The input
circuit is completed once the terminals are connected to both positive and negative
wires. This commences drawing a heavy current momentarily. As a result, there may
be a sparking occurring even if the inverter is in the off position. To minimize sparking,
it is recommended that you should choose an appropriate sized wire feeding into the
inverters and/or install an external fuse leading into the inverter.
