AC Input/Output Connections

WARNING: Damage to the power inverter will occur if an external AC power source is applied to the inverter's
AC hardwire output.
WARNING: Do not directly connect another source of AC power to the AC output of the inverter. This will
result in damage not covered under warranty.
GFCI
A 20 A GFCI is installed into the side of the inverter, except for hardwire-only versions ("H" suffix) where the
GFCI is omitted. The rated output of the inverter is 12.5 A. If a 20 A load is applied to the GFCI, the 15 AAC
output breaker installed on a 12LPC15 will eventually trip. The 12LPC15 allows for 20 A of bypass current. If 20
A of load is connected to the inverter or inverter/charger while in inverter mode, the inverter will shut down in
overload.
Hardwire Interface
1. Remove the cover for hardwire AC wiring.
2. Insert the AC input and output wiring through the AC output cable clamps to protect the wires from the metal
edge of the hole.
3. Connect the AC wiring to the provided internal terminal blocks. Check that the AC input wiring is connected
to the AC input terminal blocks and the AC output wiring is connected to the AC output terminal blocks. The
12LPC15 should use 14 AWG minimum for the AC output. The AC terminal block will accept 14-8 AWG wire.
4. Torque the AC terminal blocks to 10 lbf·in.
5. Connect the hot wires to the black terminal, the neutral to the white terminal, and the ground to the green
terminal.
