Ac Side Connections - Samlex Power PST-600-12 Manuel Du Propriétaire

Section 8 |
Ampacity of the cable so that the fuse blows before the cable insulation is damaged
due to overheating as a result of fault current higher than the Ampacity of the cable.
The Amp ratings of fuses provided with the Inverter Installation Kits are lower than
the wire size provided with the Kit.
The Kits come with 10ft length of cables to cover battery to inverter distance of up to
10 ft. If the actual cable routing distance from the battery to the inverter is less than
10ft, please cut-off the extra length of cables. This will result in reduction in the over-
all resistance of the cable / reduction in voltage drop and consequently, will improve
the efficiency of the inverter system
8.4.6 DC Input Connection
The DC input terminals for battery connection (8 & 9 in Fig. 6.1) have 11 mm / 0.433"cylindri-
cal hole with M-8 set screw.
DO NOT insert the stranded bare end of the wire directly into the tubular hole as the set
screw will not pinch all the strands, resulting in a partial/loose contact.
To ensure firm contact, a pair of pin type terminal lugs have been provided as follows:
• PST-600: For up to AWG#2 or 35 mm
• PST-1000: For up to AWG#1/0 or 50 mm
8.4.7 Reducing RF Interference
Please comply with recommendations given in Section 3 – "Limiting Electromagnetic
Interference".

8.5 AC SIDE CONNECTIONS

WARNING! Preventing Paralleling of the AC Output
1. The AC output of the inverter cannot be synchronized with another AC
source and hence, it is not suitable for paralleling. The AC output of the in-
verter should never be connected directly to an electrical breaker panel / load
center which is also fed from the utility power/ generator. Such a connection
will result in parallel operation and AC power from the utility / generator will
be fed back into the inverter which will instantly damage the output section
of the inverter and may also pose a fire and safety hazard. If an electrical
breaker panel / load center is being fed from the utility power / generator
and the inverter is required to feed this panel as backup power source, the
AC power from the utility power/ generator and the inverter should first be
fed to a manual selector switch / Automatic Transfer Switch and the output
of the manual selector switch / Automatic Transfer Switch should be con-
nected to the electrical breaker panel / load center.
2. To prevent possibility of paralleling and severe damage to the inverter, never
use a simple jumper cable with a male plug on both ends to connect the AC
output of the inverter to a handy wall receptacle in the home / RV.
