Connecting Conditions - Victron energy Impulse S12 Manuel

6. CONNECTING CONDITIONS

6.1 Connection to 1-phase network
The charger is suitable for a mains voltage of 230V - 50/60Hz, 1-phase and has been
fitted with a 1.5 meter mains lead and plug.
NOTE: Check whether the mains voltage is in accordance with the voltage the charger was
designed for. The mains plug should be plugged into a wall socket.
6.2 Connection charging cables
On the output (secondary) side the chargers have been fitted with a 2.5 meter 3-wire
charging cable. Since the charger counts on the losses due to cabling, it is not allowed to
replace this cable with a cable of different length and/or diameter without adaptation by the
supplier/dealer. Shortening the cable is not allowed either!
The positive and negative terminals should be connected to the corresponding battery
poles. If the battery is connected to the charger with reversed polarity, the charger will not
start charging and does not show any failure indication.
Impulse S12
The charge cable is fitted with an XLR-charging connector, whereby pin 1 of the XLR-
charging connector is the positive pole (+) and pin 2 is the negative pole (-) and pin 3 is the
drive inhibit signal (unless this is altered by your supplier/dealer) .
