Installation
2.0 Installation
Read the entire Installation section to determine how best to install the ACLD controller. The more
thorough you plan in the beginning, the better the chances are that the installation will go well.
WARNING: Installations should be performed by qualifi ed personnel, such as a
licensed or certifi ed electrician. It is the installer’s responsibility to determine which
safety codes apply and to ensure that all applicable installation requirements are
followed. Applicable installation codes vary depending on the specifi c location and
application of the installation.
WARNING: Review the “Important Product Safety Information” on pages ii-v before
any installation.
CAUTION: The ACLD controller weighs 20 lb (9.1 kg), use proper lifting techniques
during installation to prevent personal injury.
Info: The ACLD controller only controls the renewable energy source connected to the
AC side of the system. Any renewable energy source connected to the DC side of the
system must be controlled separately using a DC controller/diversion load.
2.1 Pre-Installation
The simplifi ed system diagram shown in Figure 2-1 should be reviewed to assist you in planning
and designing your installation. This drawing is not intended to override or restrict any national
or local electrical codes. This drawing should not be the determining factor as to whether the
installation is compliant, that is the responsibility of the electrician and the onsite inspector.
