DC Terminal Connector Locations

Terminal connectors for DC wiring are located on the lower
edge of the circuit board. See

Figure 2-21

.

The common negatives can be reversed or wired with an
appropriately sized single conductor to a more convenient
location such as a DC load center negative bus, if necessary.

The shunt used to measure the current flow in the

C-Series

controller

is located in the positive conductor of the circuit

allowing greater flexibility in system grounding. The
negative terminals are all common to one another.

Important:

Installations should meet all local codes and

standards. Installations of this equipment should only be
performed by skilled personnel such as qualified electricians and
Certified Renewable Energy (RE) System Installers. For a list of
Xantrex Certified RE dealers, please visit our website at
www.XantrexREdealers.com.

WARNING: Shock Hazard

Disconnect battery and PV sources before wiring.

CAUTION: Damage to Batteries

Ensure the voltage selection jumper is set properly before
energizing the system. Incorrect settings may result in damage to
the system as charging regulation will not occur.

Important:

Regardless of the configuration, only the positive

conductor from a PV array OR a DC load may be connected to
the terminal marked “PV+/LOAD+”.
