Conext XW+ Inverter/Charger Grounding
The Conext XW+ is provided with ground terminals that must be reliably
connected to ground (protective earth) by appropriately sized equipment
grounding conductors. System grounding for the AC and DC systems must be
done according to all applicable local installation codes.
For more information about system grounding, see “Grounding the DC System”
on page 3–7 and “AC Equipment Grounding” on page 3–20.
Grounding the DC System
To connect the Conext XW+ to the DC grounding system, use the ground lug at
the bottom of the Conext XW+ chassis (see “Conext XW+ Features” on page 1–
3). The terminal accepts wires from2.5 mm
2
to 35 mm
2
(#14 AWG to #2 AWG).
System grounding for the DC system, which typically involves bonding
(connecting) the battery negative circuit to ground, is dependent on the system
configuration.
WARNING
UNGROUNDED EQUIPMENT
Equipment ground terminals must be reliably connected to ground by
appropriately sized grounding conductors. All installations must comply with
national and local codes. Consult local and national codes for specific
grounding and bonding requirements.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
LACK OF GROUND FAULT DETECTION HAZARD
Ground fault detection on the MPPT 60 150 solar charge controller is
circumvented when the XW+ battery negative circuit is grounded.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
Note: If a grounded DC system is required, ensure that the system bonding is
done in one location only, and that all conductors and connections comply with
all applicable local installation codes.
