    RV application. The diagrams show where the remote and Inverter are installed and how the mobile power system can be integrated with a Go Power! RV Solar Kit (sold separately by Go Power, please contact an authorized dealer directly).
  • Page 16: Mounting Requirements

    INSTALLATION 3.2 MOUNTING REQUIREMENTS 1. TEMPERATURE Make sure the GP-ISW is installed in a location where the normal air temperature is between -20°C and 40°C. The cooler the better within this range. 2. MOISTURE Do not allow water or other fluids to come into contact with the GP-ISW. Do not expose to rain, snow or water.

    INSTALLATION 3.3 DC WIRING Solar Panel ISW Remote Control (Optional) GP-ISW Loads DC Panel Battery Disconnect Switch (not required if circuit breaker is used) Fuse or Circuit Breaker Earth Ground (RV Ground) Fuse Battery Bank To Battery Bank To Battery Bank The following points must be observed for the DC Wiring.
  • Page 19: Dc Wiring Sizing

    INSTALLATION 3.3.1 DC WIRING SIZING The distance between the battery bank and the GP-ISW should be as short as possible to achieve maximum efficiency and to reduce fire hazards. The size of the cable should be thick enough to limit the voltage drop to less than 2% when carrying the maximum input current to prevent frequent low-input voltage warnings and shutdown.
  • Page 20: Dc Overcurrent Protection

    3.3.3 PREPARING THE DC CABLES Go Power! supplies 2 ring lugs with the GP-ISW which can be used for the Inverter end of the DC Cables. Source the correct ring terminals for the batteries you are using.
  • Page 21: Wiring The Inverter To The Batteries

    INSTALLATION To help prevent seizing and corrosion around the terminals the use of an anti-seize lubricant is highly recommended. Apply the antioxidant grease or spray after all the connections are made and tightened. 3.3.5 WIRING THE INVERTER TO THE BATTERIES WARNING: Lethal currents will be present if the positive and negative cables attached to the battery bank touch each other.
  • Page 22: Dc Grounding

    INSTALLATION 3.3.6 DC GROUNDING To protect against electrical shock hazards the GP-ISW metal chassis must be connected to the DC grounding system. The DC grounding system is sometimes referred to as the earth ground or another designated ground. For example on an RV, the metal frame of the RV is designated as the negative DC ground / RV ground.
