Connecting mains cable

DANGER

danger

Risk of death due to electrical shock and discharge!

De-energise device and secure against being switched on again.

CAUTION

caution

Risk of fire due to overcurrent and heating of the mains cable

If mains cables are too small, they can heat up and cause a fire.

  • Use a suitable cross-section.
  • Install line circuit breaker to secure against overcurrent.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

notice

Make sure that the phases of the AC terminal and in the mains supply match.

This product may generate a direct current in the outer protective earthing conductor. If protective residual current devices (RCD) or residual current monitoring devices (RCM) are used, only type B ≥ 300 mA RCDs or RCMs are permitted on the AC side.

If type A RCD compatibility is activated in the device, a type A RCD can also be used.

INFO

Info

Whenever working on the inverter, only ever use insulated tools to prevent short-circuits.

INFO

Info

Make sure that the phases of the AC terminal and in the mains supply match.

The 4-wire AC connection (3L/PE without N) is only possible in symmetrical networks.

 

  1. Disconnect the power supply from the mains.
  2. Secure AC connection against being switched on again.
  3. Switch the DC switch on the inverter to OFF.
  4. Correctly lay the mains cable from the power distributor to the inverter.
  5. Install the necessary safety devices – line circuit breakers, residual current circuit breakers – in the mains cable.
  6. Unscrew AC cap.

 

  1. Strip insulation off mains cable.
  2. Fit suitable heat-shrinkable sleeves onto the wires. Strip insulation off ends of conductors and crimp the cable ring lug onto the ends of conductors.
  4. Pull the mains cable through the AC cap.
  5. Install AC separators.
  7. Connect the mains cable to the AC terminal according to the labelling.
  9. Screw the AC cap onto the inverter housing and the cable onto the AC cap. Tightening torque: AC cap 1.2 Nm, cable 12 Nm.
  11. In countries in which a second PE connection is required, connect this at the marked place on the housing (outside).
