Residual Current Device (RCD Safety Switch)
This inverter is tted with a Residual Current Device (RCD Safety switch as standard). The Residual
Current Device (RCD) switch detects if there is an earth leakage fault and will automatically disconnect
all output power sockets protecting the user from electrocution. Meets Australian Standards for AS4763
(portable inverters) and AS3001 (caravan installation)
The inverter has a Mains Earth Neutral (M.E.N) connection permanently installed on the inverter side
of the AC Transfer switch. This allows the RCD to work correctly while on Inverter.
This system of earthing provides a reference between the Ground/Earth and the Neutral circuit allowing
for detection of imbalance between the Active and Neutral Circuits in the event of a fault.
With no MEN connection in place, protective devices will not operate correctly to ensure the installation
is electrically safe.
When the Transfer switch is active and allowing AC power from the IEC Input socket to pass through
to the Outlet circuits, the RCD needs to rely on the M.E.N connection of the Input Power supplied for
maximum protection.
Please note: The majority of generators on the market do not have an M.E.N connection. If no M.E.N
is present on the IEC Input socket, the RCD will not supply the maximum protection while the Transfer
Switch is active.
Remote Control / Display Connection
• The Remote Display on the unit is detachable. To install the remote in a dierent location, the provided
6 pin standard RJ12 “rollover” cable is used.
• Remove the 2 screws at the front of the Display Panel and disconnect the small RJ12 cable from the unit.
• Install the RJ12 cable in your desired location and connect the RJ12 cable to the unit and the other
end of the cable to the Display Panel. Please note polarity. Refer Appendix II
Test the ePOWER Inverter connection:
1. Switch the AC Branch Breaker to ON to provide AC Input power to the unit.
2. The LED on display will turn on. If AC input source is available, ‘Status’ LED turns green. This indicates
the unit is running in By-Pass mode meaning AC output is running from the AC input source.
3. Disconnecting the AC input source by turning OFF the AC Input to the inverter. The ‘Status’ LED
on the display will switch to amber.
4. Both AC outputs and 5V USB are now available and the unit is running on battery power.
5. Plug a small AC load into the front power point, like a 40W table lamp or small appliance to the
front AC socket to verify AC is available.
6. The unit is successfully installed and functioning properly.
