Neutral Grounding - Mastervolt AC Master 12/700 Manual Del Usuario Y De Instalación

5. Neutral grounding

For safe installation:
• The chassis ground terminal must be connected to the central grounding point of the vehicle/
ship.
• The neutral conductor (N) of the AC output of the AC Master must be connected to the safety
ground (PE/GND) and a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) must be integrated in the wiring of
the AC output. Note that the AC output socket of the 120 V models, has a built-in GFCI!
Refer to locally applicable regulations on these issues!
6. Installation
The basic installation is described step-by-step at the beginning of this manual. The location
requirements, the recommended wire sizes, the optional remote panel and the optional remote
control terminal are described in the following sections.
Choosing a location to install
• Install the AC Master in a well-ventilated room protected against rain, snow, spray, vapour, bilge,
moisture and dust.
• Ambient temperature: –25 ... 60°C / –13...140°F.
• Never use the AC Master at a location where there is danger of gas or dust explosions.
• Mount the AC Master in such a way that obstruction of the airflow through the ventilation
openings is prevented. No objects must be located within a distance of 10 cm / 4 inch around
the AC Master.
• Do not install the AC Master in the same compartment as the batteries. Do not mount the AC
Master straight above the batteries because of possible corrosive sulphur fumes.
