    Phoenix Inverter Smart Manual 3.2.1. Battery connection In order to fully utilize the full capacity of the inverter, it is important to use batteries with sufficient capacity and battery cables with sufficient cross section. There is no safety fuse inside the inverter. A safety fuse should be installed externally. See below table for the recommended battery cable cross section, safety fuse rating and battery capacity for each inverter model.

    Phoenix Inverter Smart Manual 5.3. Protections and automatic restarts Overload Some loads like motors or pumps draw large inrush currents in a start-up situation. In such circumstances, it is possible that the start-up current exceeds the over current trip level of the inverter. In this case the AC output voltage will quickly decrease to limit the output current of the inverter.
