WARNING: Fire, Shock and Energy Hazards
Before installing the GT Inverter, read all instructions and cautionary markings located in
this manual, on the PV array, and on the main service panel.
There are four main steps in the installation of the GT Inverter:
1. Mounting the GT Inverter (this chapter)
2. Grounding the PV array (see your PV equipment documentation).
3. Making the DC connections from the PV array to the GT Inverter
("Connecting the DC Wiring" on page 3–4)
4. Making the AC connections from the GT Inverter to the main utility service
panel ("Connecting the AC Wiring" on page 3–7)
Figure 2-6 summarizes these four steps.
