Mounting the Inverter
To mount the PROwatt 600 Inverter:
1. Turn off the inverter’s On/Off switch.
2. Select an appropriate mounting location and orientation.
The PROwatt must be oriented in one of these two ways:
• Horizontally on a vertical surface. (The ventilation
openings must not point up or down.)
• On or under a horizontal surface
3. Mark the positions of the four mounting screws, and
pilot-drill the mounting holes.
4. Fasten the inverter using corrosion-resistant hardware
sized #10 or larger.
Connecting the Chassis Ground
The PROwatt 600 has a screw terminal labeled CHASSIS
GND on the rear panel as shown in Figure 1 . This is to be
used to connect the inverter’s chassis to the ground. To
connect the chassis to ground, follow the guidelines below.
WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard
Never operate the PROwatt 600 without
connecting the chassis to ground. Electrical shock
hazard could result.
This inverter does not provide isolation between
the DC and AC circuits. Therefore the AC line and
neutral are both “hot” relative to battery negative.
The ground pins of the AC output receptacles are
connected to the battery negative as is the chassis
of the inverter.
