4.0 Installation
4.1 Where to Install
The inverter should be installed in a location that meets the following
requirements:
Do not connect the 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 whether the inverter is switched on or off. 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!
TM
a) Dry - Do not allow water to drip or splash on the inverter.
b) Cool - Ambient air temperature should be between 32 and 104 °F (0 and 40
°C); the cooler the better.
c) Ventilated - Allow at least 2 inches (5.08 cm) of clearance around the
inverter for air flow. Ensure the ventilation openings on the rear and bottom
of the unit are not obstructed.
d) Safe - Do not install the inverter in the same compartment as batteries or in
any compartment capable of igniting flammable liquids such as gasoline.
e) The inverter location should not exceed 10 feet (3.05 m) of the batteries.
4.2 Installation and testing
The following procedure describes how to install and test the GPSW150 and
GPSW300 inverters.
1.
Unpack and inspect your Go Power! TM Inverter. Ensure that the power
switch is in the OFF position.
2. Connect power:
GPSW150
:
Attach the automobile DC plug to a DC socket; go to step 7.
Ensure there is circuit protection on the DC socket; see section 0 4.3
Cables . If the DC plug is removed showing the negative and positive wires,
go to step 3.
GPSW300 : Plug in the Anderson Power Pole connectors; go to step 3.
3. Securely connect the negative cable (black) to the negative terminal of the
battery.
