Step 2: Insert the conductors into the corresponding pins of the plug(see table in FIG 4-4), and then fix the conductors by screws firmly,as per FIG.5-4. Tool: Phillips screwdriver #1. Torque: 0.6~0.8N.m. Step 3: Tighten the pressure nut, and then push the threaded sleeve into the plug, as per FIG 4-4. Step 4: Finally, insert the assembled connector into the Multifunctional communication receptacle (COM.-3) on the inverter,...
4.6 AC Cable Connection 4.6.1 AC Side Requirements Before connecting the inverter to the grid, ensure the grid voltage and frequency comply with inverter(s) technnical specification. Otherwise, contact the electric power company for help. Connect the inverter to the grid only after getting an approval from the local electric power company. 4.6.2 Connection Procedure Step 1: Disconnect the AC-side circuit breaker and prevent it from inadvertent reconnection.
Step 6: Connect the AC cable with crimped terminals to the inverter AC terminal block. Recommended locking torque: 8-10N.m L1 L2 L1 L2 FIG 4-10 Connect AC cable Step 7: Pull back the buckle to secure the wiring compartment. Step 8: Gently pull the cable backwards to ensure firm connection, and fasten the swivel nut clockwise. Gland for AC output cable Seal ring-3 For cable...
