1.2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - GENERAL
1.2.1 Installation and wiring compliance
• Installation and wiring must comply with the Local and National Electrical Codes and
must be done by a certified electrician.
• Wrong installation on a boat may lead to corrosion of the boat. It is recommended
that the installation on a boat may be carried by a boat electrician.
• If an extension cord is used to feed 120 VAC power, please ensure that it has 3-pin
grounding, NEMA5-15 plug / receptacle and wire size is the same as the wire size of
the power cord (see wire sizes in the specifications at Section 7).
1.2.2 Preventing electrical shock
• The metal chassis of the charger is connected to the Ground pin of the power cord
plug. For proper grounding of the metal chassis, ensure that Ground pin of the AC
outlet powering the charger is firmly connected to the System / Earth Ground.
• Disassembly / repair should be carried out by qualified personnel only.
• Disconnect all AC and DC side connections before working on any circuits associated with
the unit. Turning off AC input to the unit may not entirely remove dangerous voltages.
• Be careful when touching bare terminals of capacitors. Capacitors may retain high le-
thal voltages even after the power has been removed. Discharge the capacitors before
working on the circuits.
• Do not operate the charger if the AC power cord is damaged.
