After the appropriate wire gauges and lengths have been determined,
make connections to the AC input terminal block (see Figure 2). To
make connections to the terminal block, remove the cover retaining
screws and open the access panel. Feed the AC wiring through the
access hole near the AC terminal block. The terminals are labeled
for proper AC connections, The White wire should be connected to
the terminal marked NEU, the Black wire to the terminal marked
HOT, and the Green wire should be connected to the terminal
marked GND.
5.8
DC CONNECTIONS
After the appropriate wire gauges and lengths have been determined,
make connections to the DC output terminal block (see Figure 2).
Feed the DC wiring through the access hole near the DC outputs.
The terminals are labeled for proper DC connections, the INTELI-
POWER MARINE converter has three positive (+) terminals for up
to three battery banks. One common negative (-) terminal is
provided for connection to all battery banks.

INSTALLING EXTERNAL FUSE(S) (not supplied)
An external fuse or circuit breaker (not provided) must be installed
within 72 inches of the battery on each positive (+) DC output wire
that is connected to a battery bank. (Figure 2)

FINAL WIRING CHECK
Make sure all electrical connections have been properly made to each
battery bank and at the INTELI-POWER MARINE converter. Also
check that all wiring is properly dressed with no exposed, bare wires.

APPLYING POWER
Apply shore power to the unit and turn on the AC power source
circuit breaker. Check the meter mounted on the front of the
INTELI-POWER MARINE converter for movement. A large
movement in a clockwise direction indicates the batteries are in need
of a charge (there should be a slight movement even if the batteries
are charged). If a counter-clockwise movement occurs, turn off
power immediately and refer to the trouble shooting chart. If the
INTELI-POWER MARINE converter does not charge batteries or
perform as above refer to the trouble shooting chart for more
information.
