After output testing is completed, perform the following steps:

6. Close the AC output circuit breakers. If AC bypass switches are present, place them in the

normal (non-bypass) position. Do not connect an AC input source or close any AC

input circuits.

7. Use a high-resolution voltmeter to verify correct voltage at the AC load panel.

8. Connect a small AC load and test for proper functionality.

9. Close the AC input circuit breakers and connect an AC source.



Using a high-resolution voltmeter, check the

and

EUTRAL

terminals for 120 Vac

(or appropriate voltage) from the AC source.



If a system display is present, confirm that the inverter accepts the AC source as appropriate for its

programming. (Some modes or functions may restrict connection with the source. If one of these

selections has been used for the system, it may not connect.) Check the system display indicators

for correct performance.

10. If the charger is activated, the inverter will perform a battery charging cycle after powering up.

This can take several hours. If restarted after a temporary shutdown, the inverter may skip most

or all of the charging cycle. With the system display, confirm that it is charging as appropriate.

11. Test other functions which have been enabled, such as generator start or search mode.

12. Compare the voltmeter’s readings with the system display meter readings. If necessary, the

system display’s readings can be calibrated to match the voltmeter more accurately. Calibrated

settings include AC input voltage, AC output voltage, and battery voltage.

Powering Down

These steps will completely isolate the inverter.

To remove power from the system:

1. Turn off all load circuits and AC input sources.

2. Turn off all renewable energy circuits.

3. Turn each inverter Off using the system display or external switch.

4. Turn off the main DC overcurrent devices for each inverter.

Adding New Devices

When adding new devices to the system, first turn off the system according to the

Powering Down

instructions. After adding new devices, perform another functional test, including programming.

Operation

Once the mounting, wiring, and other installation steps are completed, proceed to the
