Installation

WARNING: The inverter uses power from both AC and DC sources.

Before beginning the installation, ensure all AC power (utility/

generator) and any negative

and positive battery cables are safely

disconnected from the inverter.

Refer to Figure 2 below for the following steps:

1. Determine the AC and DC wiring routes through the MPX conduit box,

identify and remove the appropriate knockouts, and then attach the

corresponding conduit.

2. Remove the four screws (#10-32 Phillips head) and washers to take off

the front cover of the MPX conduit box.

3. Attach the MPX conduit box to the selected surface using the appropri-

ate mounting hardware. Ensure the surface and hardware can hold the

inverter’s weight (~70 lbs).

Info: Refer to your inverter’s owner’s manual for guidelines on se-

lecting a proper location and mounting surface. A Magnum backplate

(PN: BP-S single plate, BP-D dual plate) is highly recommended as

a mounting surface. (These backplates provide a non-combustible

surface and have pre-drilled holes that allow for easy mounting of

the inverter and the MPX.)

4. Once the MPX conduit box is securely mounted, carefully place the inverter

on top of the MPX, ensuring the inverter sits fl ush on the conduit box.

5. Secure the inverter to the mounting surface using appropriate hardware.
6. Route the AC and DC wiring through the appropriate knockouts/conduits

on the MPX, and then connect per the inverter’s installation procedure.

Ensure all electrical and hardware connections are correct and secure.

7. Apply power to the inverter and test for proper operation.
8. Replace and secure the front cover of the MPX conduit box.
