Step 5: Connecting AC Output to an Existing AC Circuit

Do not connect the Freedom HW to an AC branch circuit that has
high-power consumption loads.

The Freedom HW will not operate electric heaters, air conditioners,
stoves, and other electrical appliances that consume more than 1000
watts.

A Xantrex-tested and approved GFCI must be connected to the Freedom
HW AC output, and on every receptacle connected to the AC hard wired
installation. Other types may fail to operate properly when connected to
the Freedom HW. Although you can reuse the factory-installed GFCI,
Xantrex has also tested and approved the following GFCIs for use with
the Freedom HW.

For more information about GFCIs, see the application note “Using GFCI
Receptacles on Xantrex Inverters and Inverter/Chargers” in the Document
Library at www.xantrex.com.

WARNING: Shock, fire, and energy hazards

Make sure wiring is disconnected from all electrical sources before handling. All
wiring must be done in accordance with applicable local and national electrical
wiring codes.

WARNING: Shock hazard and equipment damage

Do not connect any AC source (such as a generator or utility power) to the
AC wiring output of the Freedom HW.
The Freedom HW will not operate if its output is connected to AC voltage from
another source, and potentially hazardous or damaging conditions may occur.
These conditions can occur even if the inverter is off.
