Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)

Installations in Recreational Vehicles (for North American approvals) will
require GFCI protection of all branch circuit connected to the AC output of
the hardwire terminal equipped Inverter. In addition, electrical codes
require GFCI protection of certain receptacles in residential installations.
While the pure sine wave output of the Inverter is equivalent to the
waveform provided by utilities, compliance with UL standards requires us to
test and recommend specific GFCI.
Cotek has tested the following GFCI

– protected 20A receptacles and found

that they functioned properly when connected to the output of the Inverter.

3-7. Inverter Operation

To operate the power inverter, turn the main switch ON. The power inverter
is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads. If there is several loads use,
turn them on separately after the inverter has been

“ON” in order to prevent

the OVP present caused by the surge power.

3-7-1. Set the power switch to the

“ON” position and the buzzer will send

out

“Beep” sounds at the moment the inverter will do self-diagnosis,

then the Power Status LED indicators will also appear various colors.
Finally the buzzer will sound another

“Beep” and the Power Status LED

indicators will turn to

“Green” color, the inverter starts working

successfully.

3-7-2. Set the power switch to the OFF position, the inverter stops and all

the lights that are On, go Off.

3-7-3. Set power inverter switch to the ON position and turn the test load

On. The inverter should supply power to the load. If you plan to
accurately measure the true output r.m.s. voltage of inverter, a meter
such as FLUKE 45 BECKMAN 4410 or TRIPLETT 4200 must be
used.
