Wiring The Charging Device - intervolt DCC Pro Installation & Operation Manual

Wiring the Charging Device

In a standard installation, the Charging Device should be wired according to the
schematic on page 10. A standard installation consists of a Charging Device and
Remote Display. If two Charging Devices are being installed please see page 11
for the alternate schematic.
Using the correct cable size for the job is paramount to performance and safety.
Please refer the table below for the minimum recommended cable size (cross
section) required in order to prevent voltage drop.
Cable Run Length
1-5 Metres
5-9 Metres
All cable lugs must be properly terminated using appropriate tooling in
order to prevent poor contact which can result in overheating of the stud.
An example of the correct method of termination is depicted below.
COPPER LUG FOR
MAIN TERMINATION
There are four large terminals, one each for the main and auxiliary batteries, one
for the solar panel and one for the common negative connection. These
terminals use a custom M5 threaded fastener with a 6mm diameter shoulder.
A lug with a 6mm diameter hole should be used for terminating these four
cables. There is a single, smaller, ignition terminal utilised when the optional
Ignition Control mode is required. This uses a standard M3 fastener.
The Charging Device terminals are embossed for clarity and labelled as follows:
MAIN (main battery) – 12V main or starting battery connection
AUX (auxiliary battery) – 12V second or auxiliary battery connection
SOLAR (solar panel) – 12V solar panel connection
IGN (ignition switch) – ignition switch connection
NEG (negative) – 0V input for common negative connection
LCD Display Input – for DCC interconnect cable
