Full Product Manual

*For this Renogy Inverter Charger, the battery bank will be 12 volts direct current

(12 VDC)

Example

A Microwave = 700 Watts

12V battery bank

700 Watts to run microwave using the batteries as if it

was a 12VDC microwave requires 58 Amps

700 Watts / 12 Volts = 58 Amps

Load Operation = 3 hours

Now that amps have been determined, the amps hours

need to be determined. The microwave will be used for

approximately 3 hours a day.

58 Amps * 3 hours = 174 Ah

At least a 174 Ah battery must be selected in order to use the 700 Watt microwave at

3 hours a day. However, determining a battery size is also dependent on the battery

that is able to handle repeated discharge/charge cycles.

NOTE: This is just an example. Actual quantities vary by battery capacity and rates

of discharge.

NOTE: In the example above, the user would need to be using at least the Renogy

1000W Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger.

Grounding

The Renogy Pure Sine Wave Inverter Chargers come equipped with a grounding lug for

appropriate grounding to earth ground or to another designated ground (For example, a

metal frame of an RV). The connections to ground must be tight and against bare metal.

Whether using the inverter in a mobile application, such as an RV or in a building,

grounding is highly recommended. The recommended wire size for grounding is 8 AWG

copper wire. For more information regarding grounding, users and/or installers must

consult with the Local and National Electric Codes (NEC) for more specific grounding

regulations and suggestions as they can change per scenario.
