J) Ac Output Options - NewMar 12-1800IC Installation & Operation Manual

Use 10 AWG for wiring to the inverter/charger AC input, as well. Feed the wires through the
access port/strain relief into the AC wiring compartment. The internal wires have been
factory-fitted with 12-10 AWG butt splices. Use a crimping tool to connect the wires, then
tighten the strain relief securely.

J) AC Output Options

AC output is available from both the front panel AC duplex outlets or via the AC hard-wired
output, which is typically routed through an AC distribution panel.
1) AC Outlets (not provided on "ICF" 230V models): Two outlets are provided for USA
standard three-prong 115 VAC plugs. The maximum current draw through both outlets
combined at any one time is 20 amps. The outlets are over-current protected by a resettable
20 amp "Branch" output breaker on the front panel beside the outlets.
The outlets are protected by a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) which automatically
disconnects the outlets when any significant amount of AC is detected on the ground circuit
which could present a shock hazard. Note: The AC hard-wire output is not GFCI protected.
2) AC Output Hard-Wiring
CAUTION: Integrating the inverter output with existing AC branch circuits must only be at-
tempted by a qualified marine electrician. Options may include isolating breakers on an existing
panel or installing a separate, dedicated inverter AC sub-panel. The three AC output wires are
located in the AC wiring compartment to the left of the input wires. Wire gauge, color-coding,
routing and connection are the same as recommended for AC hard-wire input in the previ-
ous section.
