connection to load
The power inverter is equipped with a standard mains socket. Plug the cord from the
equipment you wish to operate into the mains socket. Make sure that the load requirement
of your equipment does not exceed 100 watts.
The appliance is engineered to be connected directly to standard electrical and electronic
equipment in the manner described above. Do not connect the inverter to household ac
wiring. Do not connect the inverter to any ac load circuit in which the neutral conductor is
connected to ground (earth) or to the negative of the dc (battery) source.
