8. AC connection
This chapter explains the requirements and process for wiring the AC wiring to the unit.
Read carefully before starting the connection process.
8.1. Safety instructions for the AC connection
Consult section "Important Safety Instructions" and the following instructions before working on the
unit.
Make sure there is no voltage present on the unit before starting the connection.
Do not switch on the power to the unit until you have successfully made the rest of the connections
and the unit is closed.
Ingeteam accepts no liability for any damages caused by incorrect connection.
Use the personal protective equipment specified in the section "Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE)".
8.2. Wiring requirements for the AC connection
The metal parts of the inverter (ground of the unit) are connected electrically to the grounding point of the quick
connector for AC connection.
To guarantee the safety of persons, for the unit to function correctly and comply with the applicable standards, this
point must be connected to the ground of the installation.
The ground and phase cables are connected from the grid to the inverter using a three-terminal connector.
The maximum diameter of the wiring conduit that can be used with the connector is 14 mm and the maximum
wire cross-section is 6 mm
must meet applicable regulatory requirements in the installation, with a minimum gage equal to that of phase and
neutral.
If the inverter and the grid connection point are far enough apart to require the use of cables with a larger gage, an
external distribution box should be used close to the inverter to make this connection.
