2.2 Wiring specifications and circuit breaker selection
Wiring and installation must comply with national and local electrical codes.
Recommended PV array wiring specifications and circuit breaker selection: Since the output current of
the PV array is affected by the type, connection method and illumination angle of the PV module, the
minimum wire diameter of the PV array is calculated according to its short-circuit current; refer to the
short-circuit current value in the PV module specification (the short-circuit current is constant when the
PV modules are connected in series; the short-circuit current is the sum of the short-circuit currents of
all PV modules connected in parallel); the short-circuit current of the PV array shall not exceed the
maximum input current.
Refer to the table below for PV input wire diameter and switch:

Step 5: Install the terminals cover.
Step 6: Turn on the all-in-one solar charge inverter
First, close the circuit breaker at the battery terminal, and then turn the rocker switch
on the left side of the machine to the "ON" state. The "AC/INV" indicator flashing
indicates that the inverter is working normally. Close the circuit breakers of the PV
array and the Mains. Finally, turn on AC loads one by one as the AC output is normal
to avoid a protection action caused by a large momentary shock due to simultaneous
turning on the loads simultaneously. Now, the machine goes into a normal
operation according to the set mode.
Note: If power is supplied to different AC loads, it is recommended to first turn on the load with a large
surge current. After the load is stable, turn on the load with a small surge current.
Note: If the all-in-one solar charge inverter does not work properly or the LCD or indicator is abnormal,
refer to Chapter 6 to handle the exceptions.
