Battery Connection
• Connect DC Wiring: Though your
Inverter/Charger is a
high -effici ency
converter of
electricity, its rated
output capacity is
limited by the length
and gauge of the
cabling running from the battery to the unit.
Use the shortest length and largest diameter

ConnectyourInverter/Chargertoyourbatteriesusingthefollowingprocedures:
WARNING! • Failure to properly ground your Inverter/Charger to earth ground may result in a lethal
electrical shock hazard.
• Never attempt to operate your Inverter/Charger by connecting it directly to output from an alternator
rather than a battery or battery bank.
• Observe proper polarity with all DC connections.
