Preventing re and explosion hazards
Working with the inverter may produce arcs or sparks. Thus, the inverter should not
be used in areas where there are inammable materials or gases requiring ignition
protected equipment.
These areas may include spaces containing gasoline powered machinery, fuel tanks,
battery compartments.
Precautions when working with batteries
• Batteries contain very corrosive diluted Sulphuric Acid as electrolyte.
Precautions should be taken to prevent contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
• Batteries generate Hydrogen and Oxygen during charging resulting in
evolution of explosive gas mixture. Care should be taken to ventilate the
battery area and follow battery manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or ame near the batteries.
• Use caution to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool on the battery. It could
spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could cause an
explosion.
• Remove metal items like rings, bracelets and watches when working with
batteries. Batteries can produce short circuit current high enough to weld a
ring or the like to metal causing a severe burn.
• If you need to remove a battery, always remove the Negative terminal from the
battery rst.
Make sure that all the accessories are off so that you do not cause a spark.
The Inverter Installation Kit consists of two cables and the fuse arrangement for
connecting the battery to the inverter in a safe manner.
Installation and wiring compliance
Installation and wiring must comply with
the local and National Electrical Codes and
must be done by a CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
SECTION 1 | Important Safety Precautions

Fuse Protection in the Battery Circuit
A battery is an unlimited source of current. Under short circuit conditions, a battery
can supply thousands of Amperes of current. If there is a short circuit along the length
of the cables that connect the battery to the inverter, thousands of Amperes of current
can ow from the battery to the point of shorting and that section of the cable will
overheat, the insulation will melt and the cable will ultimately break. This interruption
of very high current will generate a hazardous, high temperature, high energy arc
with accompanying high pressure wave that may cause re, damage nearby objects
and cause injury. To prevent an occurrence of hazardous conditions under short circuit
conditions, an appropriate fuse should be used in the battery circuit that has the
required current interrupting capacity (Termed AIC – Ampere Interrupting Capacity).
For this purpose, a fuse with AIC rating of 10000A at 14V / 5000A at 32V, or higher
should be used.
The following types of fuses are included in the Kit:
• 400A, 125 VDC, Model JLLN 400 manufactured by Littelfuse
- AIC of 20,000A
- UL Class “T” rated, UL listed as per UL Standard 248-15
• Marine Rated Battery Fuse (MRBF Series) made by Cooper Bussmann
- Voltage rating of max 58 VDC
- Current ratings of 100A (MRBF-100), 200A (MRBF-200) and 300A (MRBF-300)
- AIC of 10000A at 14VDC, 5000A at 32 VDC and 2000A at 58 VDC
- Ignition protected as per SAE J1171
- Weather Proof (IP66)
!
CAUTION
The fuse should be placed as close to the battery’s POSITIVE terminal as
possible, preferably within 7” of the battery terminal.
Sizing of Cables to Reduce Voltage Drop, Heating and Power Loss
Flow of electric current in a conductor is opposed by the resistance of the conductor.
The resistance of the conductor increases linearly as the length of the conductor is
increased and decreases as the cross-section (thickness) of the conductor is increased.
Flow of current through the resistance of the conductor produces voltage drop and
power loss due to heating. Voltage drop due to resistance of the conductor increases
linearly as the current increases.
Power loss because of heating due to resistance of the conductor increases by the
square of the increase in the current - e.g. if the current increases 2 times, the heating
/ power loss increases 4 times. Thus, it is desirable that thicker and shorter conductors
be used to reduce the undesirable effects of voltage drop, heating and power loss.
The size (thickness / cross-section) of the conductors is designated by AWG (American
Wire Gauge). Please note that a smaller AWG # denotes a thicker size of the conductor
up to AWG #1. Wires thicker than AWG #1 are designated AWG #1/0, AWG #2/0,
AWG #3/0 and so on. In this case, increasing AWG # X/0 denotes thicker wire.
SECTION 2 | General

DC input circuit of an inverter is required to handle very large DC currents. Cables
and connectors from the battery to the inverter should be properly sized to ensure
minimum voltage drop, minimum heating and minimum power loss between the
battery and the inverter. Thinner cables and loose connections will result in larger
voltage drop, increased loss of power and consequent reduction in efciency, poor
inverter performance and will produce abnormal heating that may lead to risk of
insulation melt down and re.
For safety against overheating and consequent deterioration of the insulation
and possibility of re, Table 310.17 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) species
the maximum current carrying capacity (Ampacity) of various types of cables for
installation in free air. Apart from the consideration of safety as explained above,
reducing the voltage drop as a result of longer distance of the cable between the
battery and the inverter is also important for improving the efciency of the DC input
side of the inverter system. Longer distance between the battery and the cable will
require thicker cable. Normally, the thickness of the cable should be such that the
voltage drop from the battery terminal to the inverter is as low as possible, preferably
less than 5%.
Inverters are designed to operate normally within a specied lower and upper input
voltage range. The lower operating voltage limit of inverters is normally 10V, 20V and
40V for 12V, 24V and 48V battery systems respectively. When this limiting voltage is
seen at the input terminal of the inverter, it will shut down due to low input voltage
protection. Thus, if there is excessive voltage drop in the input connection between
the battery and the inverter due to thinner cable / longer distance / larger current, the
inverter will shut down even if the battery is fully charged.
As the distance between the battery and the inverter may vary depending upon the
user requirement, 10 ft length of cable is provided in the Inverter Installation Kits for
convenience. The specications of the Kits include the approximate voltage drops for
distances of 3, 6 and 10 ft. between the battery and the inverter.
Please note that for the purposes of the calculation of the voltage drop based on the
resistance per unit length, the length of the cable has been taken as twice the distance
between the battery and the inverter to include the overall length of the Positive and
Negative cables (e.g. if the distance between the battery and the inverter is taken as
3 ft., the length of the cable has been taken as 6 ft. for calculation purposes).
Please ensure that the distance between the battery and the inverter is kept as short
as possible to limit the voltage drop to less than 5%. Cut off the extra length of cable
if the distance between the battery and the inverter is less than 10 ft.
Characteristics of the Cable Provided with the Kits
We have provided the highest quality, industrial/ welding grade, exible cable with
the Kits. These cables are designed for use as motor and power leads where exibility
and portability are required. The inherent nature of the design makes the cables

DC-2500-KIT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Preparing Cable Termination for Inverter End
• The cables provided in the kits have copper ring
terminals on both the ends.
• The ring terminal may not t the DC input
terminal on the inverter and may need to be
reshaped / replaced with cable lugs provided
with the inverter.
• Some inverters require Pin Type of terminal lugs
to t DC input connectors with a cylindrical
hole and set screw. As the terminal lug tted on
the cable is made of copper which is malleable,
it can be beaten with a hammer to form a
pin shape of the required diameter to t the
cylindrical hole.
• It may be necessary to remove the cable lug and
crimp the new lug provided with the inverter.
A. Identify the Positive & Negative cables
• Positive cable: Red color with terminal lugs at
each end as in Fig. 3.1.
• Negative cable: Black color with terminal lugs
at each end as in Fig. 3.2.
B. Connect one end of the Positive cable to the
Positive terminal of the inverter (usually Red in color).

B. The Class T Fuse Assembly (Fig. 3.15)
consists of the following components
assembled as one unit:
Class T Fuse – Fig. 3.16: This is rated at 125V,
400A. It is UL Class “T” rated and UL listed as
per UL Standard 248-15. It has AIC (Ampere
Interrupting Capacity) of 20,000A
Fuse Holder – Fig. 3.17: This consists of a
breglass insulated base with studs / bolts
(5/16” diameter, 18 Threads Per Inch) and
nuts (requires ½” size wrench) for holding
the fuse. The two terminals for cable entry
are designed for #4/0 cable (Hole size is
0.6” / 15.5 mm). Hexagonal headed socket
screws (requires Allen Key size 5/16”) are
used to clamp the cable ends.
Snap on cover : Made of clear polycarbonate
and provides touch safety.
C. The fuse should normally be installed
within 7 inches of the Positive Terminal of
the battery. Cut the Positive cable based on
the desired location of the Class “T” Fuse
Assembly using an appropriate wire cutter.
Strip 1.05” of the insulation at the cut
ends using a suitable wire stripper. Please
ensure that the innermost layer of the tape
separator is completely removed.
See Fig. 3.18.
D. Insert the bare ends of the cable into
the hole for the cable entry and tighten
the screw down terminals rmly. Fix the
clear polycarbonate snap on cover for touch
safety. See Fig. 3.19.

NOTE:
The diameter of the hole in the screw down terminal for the cable entry is 0.6” and
is just big enough for the diameter of the bare AWG #4/0 stranded cable. The ends of
the strands towards the cut face of the cable may get bent, frayed or spread outwards
during cutting causing the diameter of the cable near the cut face to increase slightly.
The strands towards the cut face need to be pressed together closely to reduce
the diameter near the cut face to less than 0.6”. To keep the strands towards the
cut face pressed together for easier entry into the terminal for cable entry, tightly
wrap insulation tape around 0.2” to 0.3” from the cut face. If required, straighten
and compress the bent, frayed, or spread out ends to reduce the diameter to the
minimum.
Insert the leading 0.2” to 0.3” bare portion into the hole and remove the insulating
tape to insert the bare end of the cable fully.
Please ensure that all the strands get inserted into the hole and that no strand(s) is
left forced out of the hole.

E. Connect the terminal lug of the shorter section of the cut Positive cable to the
Positive terminal of the Battery, usually denoted by the ‘+’ sign (see Fig. 3.20).
F. Connect the terminal lug of the longer section of the cut Positive cable to the
Positive terminal of the inverter (usually Red in color). The terminal lug may need to
be reshaped/replaced to t the inverter terminal (see details above).
G. Connect one end of the Negative cable to the Negative terminal of the inverter
(usually Black in color). The terminal lug may need to be reshaped/replaced to t the
inverter terminal (see details above).
H. Connect the other end of the Negative cable to the battery Negative terminal,
usually denoted by the ‘-’ sign. When the lug of the Negative cable rst makes
contact with the Negative terminal of the battery, a spark may be observed. This is
normal. This spark occurs because of the initial charging current of the input side
capacitors inside the inverter.
I. Ensure that all the connections are tight.

NOTES
1.0 The current ratings of the fuses are less than the ampacity (maximum current
carrying capacity) of the cables based on NEC Table 310.17 for free air, ambient
temperature of 30°C / 86°F and temperature rating of conductor at 90°C / 194°F.
2.1 Voltage drop is calculated by multiplying the current ow in the cable by the
resistance of the cable. Distances 3 ft., 6ft. and 10 ft. are the running distances
between the battery and the inverter. The resistance of the cable is calculated for the
total length of the cable – from the Positive of the battery to the inverter and back
to the Negative of the battery. Thus, the total length of cable is taken as 2 times the
running distance between the battery and the inverter. For example, for running
distance of 3ft., the resistance will be calculated for 6 ft.
2.2 Percentage voltage drop is calculated with respect to 12V and for 12V system and
24V for 24V system.
2.3 Resistance of the cable in Ohms per ft. is based on ambient temperature of 25°C.

la longueur totale du câble, de la borne positive de la batterie à l’onduleur, et
encore, de l’onduleur jusqu’à la borne négative de la batterie. Ainsi, la longueur
totale du câble est mesurée doublement entre la batterie et l’onduleur. Par exem-
ple, pour une longueur totale de 90cm, la résistance est calculée pour 1,80m.
2,2 Le pourcentage de la chute de tension est calculé avec 12V pour le système 12V
et 24V pour le système 24V.
2,3 La résistance du câble en Ohms par mètre est basée sur la température ambiante
de 25°C / 77°F. Les résistances des 4 tailles des câbles et le courant considéré pour
le calcul des chutes de tension sont indiquées ci-dessous :
