9 Connecting the inverter

9.1 General instructions

• When installed in vehicles or boats, the inverter must be connected to the chassis

or earth.

• When setting up a socket distribution circuit (mains set up), comply with

VDE 0100.

• Only use copper cables.

• Keep the cables as short as possible (< 1.8 m).

• Keep to the required cable cross section and fit a cable fuse (fig. 9 3, page 6) as

close as possible to the battery in the positive cable (see Table).

WARNING!

• The inverter may only be connected by a suitably qualified techni-

cian. The following information is intended for technicians who are

familiar with the guidelines and safety precautions to be applied.

• For vehicles in which the positive terminal of the battery is connected

with the chassis the inverter must not be installed.

• If you do not fit a fuse to the positive cable, the cables can over-

load, which might result in a fire.

• Reversed polarity can damage the inverter.

• MSI900, MSI1300, MSI1800: The inverter must not be used in a

ring main, but only used for supplying individual devices with elec-

tricity. These devices must be plugged directly into the inverter, or

connected to the inverter using a sheathed extension cable manu-

factured for this purpose.
