AC Input/Output Connection
To avoid overloading your Inverter/Charger, be sure to match the power requirements of the equipment you plan to run at any one time (add their
total watts) with the output wattage capacity of your Inverter/Charger model. When figuring the power requirements of your equipment, do
not confuse "continuous" wattage with "peak" wattage ratings. Most electric motors require extra power at start-up ("peak" wattage) than
required to run continuously after start-up, sometimes over 100% more. Some motors, such as in refrigerators and pumps, start and stop
intermittently according to demand, requiring "peak" wattage at multiple, unpredictable times during operation.
• DoubleBoost Feature
™
Tripp Lite Inverter/Chargers deliver up to twice their nameplate
rated wattage for up to 10 seconds,* providing the extra power
needed to cold start heavy-duty tools and equipment.
Warning! Consult a qualified electrician and follow all applicable electrical codes and
requirements for hardwire connection. Disconnect both DC input and AC utility supply
before attempting hardwiring. Over-current protection should be provided in accordance
with local and/or national electrical codes. Refer to nameplate on unit for input and
output current ratings. Use wire with a minimum temperature rating of 90º C. A readily
visible and adequate disconnect device must be provided.
Remove the screws and cover plate over the hardwire terminal strip. Remove the knockout covers closest to the desired electrical source and
to your equipment. Attach 13 mm (0.5 inch) diameter conduits (user-supplied) to the knockouts and thread wires through. Connect the
conduits to each other with the ground bond connection supplied.

AC Generator Input
The inverter/charger is designed to provide heavy-duty power to both the AC output load and the DC battery charging load at the same time. The
amount of additional input power required is determined by the setting of the AC Input Current Sharing DIP switches (switches 7 and 8 - see the
Configuration section for switch settings). The recommended minimum VA rating for AC generator input is shown in the table below.

• OverPower
Tripp Lite Inverter/Chargers deliver up to 150% of their
nameplate-rated wattage for up to 60 seconds under ideal battery
and temperature conditions*, providing reserve power to support
tools and equipment.
* For best results, utilize for as short a duration as possible, ensure that battery bank
and cabling are able to provide full nominal DC voltage under load, and allow the
inverter/charger to cool completely before and after utilization.

Replace cover plate and tighten screws.
* If the incoming conduit only contains two wires (hot and neutral), the incoming conduit must
be bonded to the main ground lug on the unit. In any case, the incoming conduit must be
bonded to earth ground, and the incoming conduit must be bonded to the outgoing conduit.
Note: If the applied AC load is significantly less than that of the Inverter/Charger's AC
output rating, a smaller size generator may be used by setting the battery charger DIP
Switch to the low DC current setting. The minimum recommended VA rating for the
AC generator would then be theVA needed for the Charger (1100VA forAPSX3024SW
or 2000 VA for APSX6048VR) plus the VA required for the load.
