11 Mounting the inverter Before mounting the inverter , please see “Choosing a location ” . T o mount the inverter: 1. Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position. 2. Select an appropri ate mounting location and ori entation. The inverter must be orient ed in one of the following ways: • Hori zontally on a vertical surface. (Do not mou[...]

12 Using the DC cable with cigarette lighter plug Due to the limitations of 12 V ou tlets in boats a nd vehicles, the XPower 450 should be used with the DC cable with cigarette lighter plug (if su pp l ie d ) o n ly t o s u pp l y A C po w er to p ro d uc t s t h at r eq u ir e 15 0 W ( a bo u t 1.3 A) or less. If y our app lication requires more t[...]

13 Using the DC cable clips By directly conn ecting the power in verter to a 12 V b attery using the DC cable clips (if supplied), you ca n operate products with power requirements up to 360 W continuous. 1. Follow steps 1 and 2 under “Using the DC cable with cigarette lighter plug” to attach the ring-type connectors. 2. Attach the negative (bl[...]

14 T o hardwire the inverter to a 12 V battery: 1. Make sure the power inve rter’s ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position. 2. Use an 8 AWG (or hea vier) wire to a maximum total length of 2 m (6.5 ' ). 3. Install a 60 A automotive fuse in the positive (red) wire, clo se to the end that will attach to the b attery. Figure 1 Hardwiring the invert[...]

15 4. Solder or crimp the heavy-duty terminals to the p ositive an d negative wires. Use te rminals that mate properly with the battery terminals or existing battery cable clamps. 5. Remove the nuts from the DC terminals on the inverter. 6. Place the red ring connector on the red (positive + ) DC terminal on the inverter. With star washer in place,[...]

16 Connecting the chassis ground The inverter has a chassis ground terminal screw on th e rear panel marked . Follow the guidelines under “Grounding locations” to connect the inverter’s chassis to the groun d. Grounding locations You must connect the chassis ground terminal to a grounding point. The grounding point varies depending on where y[...]

17 Chassis ground screw We recommend that you attach the cable to the chassis ground screw with a ring terminal. This procedur e will ensure that the wire does not slip off the chassis ground screw . See Figu re 2 . T o connect the cable to the chassis ground scr ew: 1. Make sure the inverte r’s ON/OFF switch is in the OFF posit ion. 2. Strip 1/2[...]

18 T esting the GFCI-protected A C outlet The outlet on the XPower 450 is a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet. A GFCI outlet protec ts you against hazard ous electrical shocks that could be caused by dampness, faulty mechanism, worn insulation, and so on. You might still feel shock, but the GFCI should cut it off quickly enough so an a[...]
