lUse DC cables with a higher insulation temperature rating (105°C) if possible.
However, a higher insulation temperature rating does not mean the conductor size
can be reduced due to the temperature ratings of the terminal connections. Always
use a qualified installer to ensure conductor sizing complies with regional, national,
and local electrical codes.
lThe DC cables must be UL marked and certified.
lLonger cables may cause excessive voltage drop and affect system performance.
Keep cable length as short as practically possible.
lUse twin wires [pos(+) and neg(-) DC cables] for all DC connections. Do not use the
vehicle chassis in place of the DC negative connection. The system requires reliable
DC return paths.
lThe battery system must be used with a Xantrex-approved fuse (see Table 1 for a list
of approved fuse options). The main battery fuse and all other fuses in the system
must be installed on the positive (ungrounded) conductor as close to their power
sources as possible. Distance restrictions may apply according to applicable codes.
lThe DC load branch, if installed, must be properly fused. The total DC load branch
should not exceed 30A to avoid overheating the main DC cables and blowing the
main battery fuse. It is the installer's responsibility to ensure the voltage, current and
interrupt ratings of the DC load branch fuse are adequate to protect the cables and
downstream loads according to applicable codes.
lUse Xantrex-approved busbars (Blue Sea, 2104) to make the DC interconnections to
ensure sufficient current-carrying capacity. You must follow the connection order at
the busbar terminal studs (DC load - alternator - BMS - Freedom SW) as shown in the
system diagram for optimal heat transfer. Use the same connection order for both
positive and negative busbars.
lEnsure there is sufficient space between the DC positive and negative busbars and
fuse holders.
lAll terminals must be tightened according to the manufacturer’s torque specifications.
lCertain codes require a service disconnect such as a battery disconnect switch. In
this case, you must select a battery disconnect switch with a continuous current rating
of no less than 450A and a voltage rating of no less than 12V.
lEnsure all system devices are properly and securely grounded to the vehicle chassis
using the correct wire sizes.
lInstall terminal covers and make sure there are no exposed conductors.
