Note!
Note indicates that there has the information or step, tips that lead the unit to best optimal but it is not safety or
damage related. Ensure caution and follow the instruction carefully when you operate the units.
Safety information required
Danger! A battery can present a risk of electrical shock, fire, or air explosion from a safety relief valve. The relief
valve is to relieve the gas in time when the battery abuse using and only gas smoking venting out of the valve with only
the lithium iron phosphate battery inside which will be much safer. Only FrnaklinWH trained and authorized personal

Danger! Ensure the installation height prevents water ingress otherwise there will be a risk of electric shock while
the flooding possible.
Danger! Ensure the FHP storage and operating environment is not out of the range specified otherwise it will cause
the FHP damage! Do not expose the FHP to ambient over 50degC (122degF) or less -20degC (-4degF).
Danger! Keep FHP works well and do not stop it when you leaving the house for a long time. Do not push aPower
on/off button off. Do not disconnect the power supply from solar input and grid input to unit aGate and aPower
connection well. It is not warranted!
Danger! Please do not abuse the products with huge loads when the grid-off. It is not warranted!
Danger! Ensure use carbon dioxide fire extinguisher or aerosol extinguisher, etc. to put out the fire.

1.4 Partial-home loads backup
aGate reserves a non-backup load connection. And it is an easy installation for you to expand the non-essential load
without backup.
Figure Partial-home loads backup
This is the preferred backup for your
whole-home loads. Franklin Home Power
will transfer all your home loads to
backup power when the grid outage.
You can use the smart circuit also to
remote your heavy duty on/off on time or
manually, such as air conditioner, pool
pump, etc. to enlarge your backup time.
You can also remote garage door, EV
charger work from smart circuit.
Reminder it needs a junction panel for
more aPowers (at least 2 aPowers) power
connection paralleled.
This is the preferred backup for your essential home
loads. Franklin Home Power will transfer your
essential home loads to backup power when the grid
outage.
In the connections, you will use 2 sub-panels, one is
for home loads backup and the other is for home
loads non-backup.
The essential home loads include the device of
light, communication, IT and computer,
refrigerators, electrical heat and/or air conditioner.
The installer will confirm with you what type loads
will be connected into your backup loads panel.

Loop-in wiring system.
If the loop is broken (2 CAN
cables are broken), the power
system will be off. Only 1 CAN
cable is broken, the system
works well.
CAN OUT
VCC IN 20VDC from aPower Loop-in wiring system
If the loop is broken (VCC
in/VCC out cables are all
broken), the system will power
off when the grid/solar is
off.
Otherwise, the system will work
well.

generator circuit has the input circuit breaker and the relay. Breakers are list in the above table. The relay is listed belo w.
The generator circuit relay will provide by FrnaklinWH.
2) Optional EPO button
The installer will configure the EPO button by the local regulations.
EPO button will be wired into the aGate EMU box and lead out of the
aGate box. EPO button will be the wall mount type and it will mount on
the wall near the aGate or somewhere more convenient.
The EPO type is NC (normal close).
Figure Example of Eaton EPO (NC type)
