Manual and automatic transfer switches are available from marine and
RV dealers. Make sure you buy an approved switch with AC voltage and
current ratings that exceed the output ratings of both the inverter and the
other power source.
The remote switch lets you turn the PROwatt 3000 on and off from a
convenient location—up to 20 feet (6 m) away from the inverter—while
the inverter is mounted out of sight and close to the batteries.
To install the remote
1. Cut out the template printed on
where you want to install the switch.
The switch requires a minimum of 0.7 inches (18 mm) of clear depth.
2. Mark the location of the two screw holes and the area to be cut out.
3. Pilot drill the two screw holes.
4. Cut out the square area.
5. Feed the communications cable and connector through the cut-out in
the panel, and route the cable to the jack on the bottom of the inverter.
6. Plug the connector into the jack on the bottom of the inverter.
7. Fasten the switch assembly using the two screws that are provided.
