Page 9: Installation
Installation 5.1 Tools for Installation: Tools required for installation: 3/8” Allen Wrench and socket wrench, connectors (butt type and insulated), drill, Crimpers (for insulated and non-insulated connectors), volt meter with probes, electrical tape, #2 Phillips screwdriver, wire cutters, wire strippers, cable ties, tape measure. -
Page 10: Sps Wiring
SPS Wiring: 6.1 DC Wiring: It is recommended in all cases to use stranded copper wires. Use SGX cross-linked polyurethane insulation type that complies with the high temperature insulation requirements (125°C.) of SAE J-1127 and vehicle manufacturer requirements. Wire gauge recommendations are minimum. For lower temperature rated, applications inside engine spaces or large motor loads and other applications with high surge currents use wire gauge 1 to 2 sizes larger than shown on table I. -

6.1.3 Connecting the DC wires: Damage to the SPS not covered under warranty will occur if correct polarity is not observed when installing the DC input cables. • Open the SPS field-wiring compartment to access the DC input connectors. • Remove the fuse in the red cable for cable installation. -
Page 12: Ac Wiring
6.2 AC Wiring: Remove the SPS field-wiring compartment cover plate to access the 120VAC, 60Hz input and output hardwire leads and follow the color code connections: Hot - Black wire, Neutral - White wire, Ground - Green wire. 6.2.1 AC Output: The 120 VAC, 60 Hz current produced by the SPS is provided at the GFCI receptacle outlets located on front of the SPS (“A”... -
