DC Side Connection
WARNING: The Renogy Pure Sine Wave Inverters are suitable for 12V battery
bank systems ONLY. Not following the minimum DC requirement will cause
irreversible damage to the unit.
CAUTION: Be careful of the positive and negative poles. Reversing the poles
might cause permanent damage to the inverter. It will surely blow the internal
fuse.
NOTE: Damage to the Renogy inverters due to reverse polarity is NOT covered by
warranty.
NOTE: The input terminals of the inverters have large capacitors connected to
them. Once a positive and negative wire are connected to the terminals, it will
complete the circuit, and commence drawing a heavy current momentarily. As a
result, there may be a sparking occurring even if the inverter is in the off position.
To minimize sparking, it is recommended that the user have the appropriate size
wire feeding into the inverters and/or install an external fuse leading into the
inverter.
NOTE: The RNG-2000W inverter will have 4 terminals (2 positive and 2 negative).
This serves the purpose of splitting the potentially high amperages and protecting
the wires.
NOTE: The 500W inverter is used as the example in the wiring schematics. The
same principles apply to the 1000W and 2000W inverters.
