Step 2: Battery Wiring
WARNING: Shock Hazard
Fuses, circuit breakers, and disconnect switches
should never open grounded system conductors. Only
GFDI devices are permitted to disconnect grounded
conductors.
AVERTISSEMENT: Risque de décharge électrique
Les fusibles, coupe-circuits et interrupteurs ne doivent
jamais ouvrir les conducteurs du système mis à la terre.
Seuls les dispositifs GFDI sont autorisés à déconnecter
les conducteurs reliés mis à la terre.
The nominal battery voltage must match the SunSaver
voltage rating. For 12V SunSaver models, only a 12V
battery may be used. Connect only 24V batteries (or two
12V batteries in series) to 24V SunSaver models.
Before connecting the battery, measure the battery
voltage. Battery voltage must be greater than 6 volts to
power the SunSaver (12V or 24V models).
Connect the battery to the SunSaver. Refer to the wire
gauge chart on page 43 of this manual for correct wire size.
Use 75 °C copper wire.
If required, the negative battery connection may be
earth grounded. Use appropriate gauge wire and proper
grounding methods for the installation site.
Wire an in-line fuse holder no more than 6 inches (150
mm) from the battery positive terminal. DO NOT INSERT
A FUSE AT THIS TIME. A circuit breaker may be used in
lieu of a fuse. Keep the breaker in the open (disconnected)
position at this time.
CAUTION: Unit has no battery removal protection.
Disconnecting battery during charging may cause a brief
spike in load voltage (above the 15V regulation limit) which
may damage sensitive equipment.
!
ATTENTION:
Unité bénécie d’aucune protection de retrait de batterie.
Débrancher la batterie pendant la charge peut entraîner
un bref pic de tension de charge (au-dessus du 15V limite
de règlement) qui peuvent endommager les équipement
sensibles.
