WARNING: Fire, Shock and Energy hazards
Make sure wiring is disconnected from all electrical sources before handling. All
wiring must be done in accordance with local and national electrical wiring
codes. Do not connect the output terminals of the
AC source.
Connect AC wires with crimp-on splice connectors.
The amount of insulation you strip off individual wires will be specified
by the connector manufacturer and is different for different types of
connectors.
Do not mix AC and DC wiring in the same conduit or panel. Where DC
and AC wires must cross, make sure they do so at 90° to one another.
Consult applicable codes for details about DC and AC wiring in close
proximity to each other.
For your reference, the AC Wiring Compartment is shown in
You can plug loads (12 A continuous, 15 A maximum) directly into the
GFCI receptacle on the front panel of the

GFCI receptacles connected to that circuit.
If you plan to use the

If you plan to hard wire the
existing AC installation, read this section.
AC wiring includes all the wires and connectors between the AC source
and the
Freedom HF
and all wiring between the inverter, the AC panels,
circuit breakers, and the GFCIs. The type and size of the wiring varies
with the installation and load. For some RV applications, flexible
multiple-strand wire is required.
