4.0 Installation

4.1 Where to install

The power inverter should be installed in a location that meets the following

requirements:

Do not connect this inverter and another AC source (generator

or utility power) to the AC wiring or AC loads at the same time.

Doing so will destroy the inverter and void the warranty,

regardless of the inverter’s on or off status. If you are using

more than one AC source for the AC wiring or AC loads, it is

highly recommended that you install an automatic transfer

switch (GP-TS), available from Go-Power.

Dry – Do not allow water to drip or splash on the inverter.

Cool – Ambient air temperature should be between 32 and 104 °F (0 and 40 °C)

(the cooler the better).

Ventilated – Allow at least two inches of clearance around the inverter for airflow.

Ensure the ventilation openings on the rear and bottom of the unit are not

obstructed.

Safe – Do not install the inverter in the same compartment as batteries, or in any

compartment capable of igniting flammable liquids such as gasoline.

Inverter should be located within 10 feet (3 m) of the batteries.

4.2 Hook-up and testing

A reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in the inverter and

may permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by

reverse polarity connection is not covered by warranty.

For hook-up, please follow these guidelines:

1. Unpack and inspect your Go Power! Inverter, then check to see that the

power switch is in the OFF position. Set up your power output according to

Section 10, Configuring your Sine Wave.
