CONNECTING WIRES FOR BATTERY INPUT POWER - SSW-350-12A & SSW-600-12A
for convenience of providing DC input power from the battery, the 350 W Model No. SSW-350-12A and the
600 W Model No. SSW-600-12A are provided with the following DC connecting wires:
• SSW-600-12A
• SSW-350-12A
When using these wires, please ensure that appropriate DC fuses are used as recommended in the Table on
page 7.
CONNECTING WIRES FOR BATTERY INPUT POWER – SSW-1000-12A, SSW-1500-12A & SSW-2000-12A
DC side connecting wires have not been provided for these inverters and these have to be arranged by the end
user. Please use the appropriate sizes of wires and fuses as per recommendations provided in the Table given
on page 7.
Crimp / solder appropriate ring type of lugs on the wire ends that connect to the DC side input terminals to suit
the size of the wire and the M9 stud.
DC SIDE INPUT TERMINALS
The following DC side input terminals have been provided:
• SSW-350-12A & SSW-600-12A
• SSW-1000-12A, SSW-1500-12A, SSW-2000-12A
MAKING DC SIDE CONNECTIONS
1. ensure that appropriate terminal lugs are used and are properly crimped / soldered at the bare ends of
the wires for secure connections.
2. ensure that the inverter's power switch is turned off and that no flammable fumes are present.
3. Identify the Positive (+) and Negative (-) terminals of the 12 V battery or other DC source.
4. Install a fuse holder or breaker close to the Positive (+) terminal of the battery (or other DC source)
(preferably within 7" of the terminal) .
5. Cut an appropriate short piece of the selected Positive wire and use this to piece to connect the Positive
terminal of the battery (or other DC source) to one terminal of the fuse holder or breaker. Connect one
end of the remaining length of wire to the other terminal of the fuse holder or breaker. Connect the
other end of the wire to the Positive terminal of the inverter.
6. Connect the selected length of Negative wire between the Negative terminal of the battery (or other DC
source) and the Negative (-) terminal of the inverter.
7. Insert a suitable fuse in the fuse holder.
8. Check to be sure that all connections are secure and tight.
9. Test the inverter by turning it on and plugging in a 100 Watt lamp or equipment.
10. If the inverter is not properly operating, then refer to the Troubleshooting Guide at page 14 of this
manual.
CAUTION: Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and melted insulation.
SWITCHING ON AND SWITCHING OFF ON LOAD
Please ensure that the following procedure is used for switching on and switching off the inverter when a load
is already connected to the inverter:
8
- 3 ft. long pair of Positive and Negative wires with battery clamps
- 3 ft. long pair of Positive and Negative wires with battery clamps
- Thumb screw – size M4
- Stud and nut – size M9
