2.3 Electrical Connection
Do not proceed with the electrical connection of the StarInverter until it has been properly
mounted.
WARNING: Electrical connections must be done in accordance with local
electrical codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70. Use 10
AWG, minimum 90° (194°F), copper wire for the PVP2500, PVP3500 and
PVP4800 connections. Voltage drop as well as other considerations may dictate
that larger wire sizes be used.
WARNING: Make sure the main breaker in the main utility breaker box is
switched OFF before wiring the StarInverter. This breaker should be switched
ON only after all wiring has been completed as set forth in this manual.
WARNING: Follow the order listed below in wiring the StarInverter. Failure
to do so may result in hazardous voltages or disconnection of contacts.
IMPORTANT: Rain tight or wet location conduit hubs that comply with the requirements in
the Standard for Fittings for Conduit and Outlet Boxes, UL 514B, are to be used
Terminal connections for the StarInverter are located inside the inverter on the circuit
board at the bottom of the box. Wires up to 6 AWG are accepted by the AC and DC
terminals.

System grounding, when required by Sections 690-41, 690-42, and 690-43 of
