Notes
Note 1: StorEdge Inverter:
SE7600A-USS0 supports double capacity
SE7600A-USS2 supports double power and double capacity
- Replace the internal 12A fuses with 25A fuses for two batteries
Recommended Fuses in StorEdge Inverter:
12A 600VDC Quick-Acting, 10 x 38 mm Solar Midget Fuses (Example: littelfuse P/N 0SPF012)
25A 600VDC Quick-Acting, 10 x 38 mm Solar Midget Fuses (Example: littelfuse P/N 0SPF025)
Note 2: External fused combiner box is needed to support two batteries
Note 3: Auto-transformer connection:
6ft max
Vertical mounting only (conduit connection from the bottom)
Use 10 AWG wire for grounding
Note 4: Battery connection:
35ft max
Distance larger than 5ft requires installation of external DC safety switch on the battery side
Control [B-,A+] must be twisted pair
Note 5: Use a twin-wire ferrules to daisy chain the thermal wiring
Note 6: Install type B 2-pole 25A main circuit breaker to ensure the 25A phase limit imbalance is
maintained at all times.
