1. Assemble battery ring terminal based on recommended battery cable and terminal size.
2. Insert the ring terminal of battery cable flatly into battery connector of inverter and make sure the nuts are
tightened with torque of 2-3 Nm. Make sure polarity at both the battery and the inverter/charge is correctly
connected and ring terminals are tightly screwed to the battery terminals.

WARNING: Shock Hazard

Installation must be performed with care due to high battery voltage in series.

CAUTION!! Do not place anything between the flat part of the inverter terminal and the ring
terminal. Otherwise, overheating may occur.
CAUTION!! Do not apply anti-oxidant substance on the terminals before terminals are connected
tightly.
CAUTION!! Before making the final DC connection or closing DC breaker/disconnector, be sure
positive (+) must be connected to positive (+) and negative (-) must be connected to negative (-).

Appendix I: Parallel function
1. Introduction
This inverter can be used in parallel with two different operation modes.
1. Parallel operation in single phase with up to 9 units. The supported maximum output power for 2KW is
18KW/18KVA, for 3KW is 27KW/27KVA and for 5KW is 45KW/45KVA.
2. Maximum nine units work together to support three-phase equipment. Seven units support one phase
maximum. For 2KW, the supported maximum output power is 18KW/18KVA and one phase can be up to
14KW/14KVA. For 3KW, the supported maximum output power is 27KW/27KVA and one phase can be up to
21KW/21KVA. For 5KW, the supported maximum output power is 45KW/45KVA and one phase can be up to
35KW/35KVA.

Step 7: Put communication board back to the unit.

Step 8: Put wire cover back to the unit. Now the inverter is providing parallel operation function.

4. Mounting the Unit

When installing multiple units, please follow below chart.

NOTE: For proper air circulation to dissipate heat, allow a clearance of approx. 20 cm to the side and approx.
50 cm above and below the unit. Be sure to install each unit in the same level.

5. Wiring Connection
NOTICE: It’s requested to connect to battery for parallel operation.
The cable size of each inverter is shown as below:
Recommended battery cable and terminal size for each inverter:
Ring Terminal Ring terminal:

Model Wire Size Cable Dimensions
value
mm2 D (mm) L (mm)
2KW 1*6AWG 14 6.4 33.2 2~ 3 Nm

3KW 1*4AWG 22 6.4 33.2 2~ 3 Nm

5KW 1*2AWG 38 6.4 33.2 2~ 3 Nm

WARNING: Be sure the length of all battery cables is the same. Otherwise, there will be voltage difference
between inverter and battery to cause parallel inverters not working.

29
Recommended AC input and output cable size for each inverter:
Model AWG no. Torque
2KW 14 AWG 0.8~ 1.0 Nm
3KW 12 AWG 1.2~1.6Nm
5KW 10 AWG 1.2~1.6Nm

You need to connect the cables of each inverter together. Take the battery cables for example: You need to use
a connector or bus-bar as a joint to connect the battery cables together, and then connect to the battery
terminal. The cable size used from joint to battery should be X times cable size in the tables above. “X” indicates
the number of inverters connected in parallel.
Regarding AC input and output, please also follow the same principle.

WARNING!! Make sure all output N wires of each inverter must be connected all the time. Otherwise, it will
cause inverter fault in error code #72.

CAUTION!! Please install the breaker at the battery and AC input side. This will ensure the inverter can be
securely disconnected during maintenance and fully protected from over current of battery or AC input. The
recommended mounted location of the breakers is shown in the figures in 5-1 and 5-2.
Recommended breaker specification of battery for each inverter:
Model 1 unit*
2KW 80A/70VDC
3KW 80A/70VDC
5KW 125A/70VDC
*If you want to use only one breaker at the battery side for the whole system, the rating of the breaker should
be X times current of 1 unit. “X” indicates the number of inverters connected in parallel.
