accessory outlet. Make sure the AC plug connection is
tight.
• Do not modify the AC receptacle in any way.
• Use only 25-amp fuses.
• This device does not include an internal Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). For GFCI protection, use a

BEFORE USING PID-200 POWER INVERTER
It is important to know the continuous wattage of the
device you plan to use with the inverter. The PID-200
must be used with devices drawing 200 watts or less. If
the wattage is not marked on the device, an estimate can
be made by multiplying the AC input current (Amps) by the
AC voltage (110V).
Devices like TVs, fans or electric motors require additional
power to start (commonly known as the “starting or peak
power”). The PID-200 can supply a momentary surge
in wattage; however even devices rated less than the
