CONNECTING TO A DC POWER SOURCE
Please ensure that the DC side wires and external fuses are selected as given below.
Note that an external fuse is required to protect the battery wires from short circuit. A battery
is an unlimited source of current and can deliver extremely high (up to 10,000 A of current)
into a short circuit that will melt the wires and cause fire hazard.
Current limiting fuse with Ampere Interrupting Capacity (AIC) of 10000 A or more or
Class T fuse is, therefore, recommended.

Note:
The type of batteries you use to power your high power inverter is important. Operating a
high power inverter will routinely discharge batteries and they will require frequent recharging.
Batteries used to start engines are not designed to repeatedly charge and discharge.
Pooxtra recommends using "deep-cycle" or "marine" rated batteries.
MAKING DC SIDE CONNECTIONS
1. Ensure that appropriate terminal lugs are used and are properly crimped / soldered
at the bare ends of the wires for secure connections.
2. Ensure that the inverter's power switch is turned off and that no flammable fumes are present.
3. Identify the Positive (+) and Negative (-) terminals of the 12 V battery or other DC source.
4. Install a fuse holder or breaker close to the Positive (+) terminal of the battery
(or other DC source) (preferably within 7" of the terminal) .
5. Cut an appropriate short piece of the selected Positive wire and use this to piece to
connect the Positive terminal of the battery (or other DC source) to one terminal of
the fuse holder or breaker. Connect one end of the remaining length of wire to the
other terminal of the fuse holder or breaker. Connect the other end of the wire to the
Positive terminal of the inverter.
6. Connect the selected length of Negative wire between the Negative terminal of the
battery (or other DC source) and the Negative (-) terminal of the inverter.
7. Insert a suitable fuse in the fuse holder.
8. Check to be sure that all connections are secure and tight.
9. Test the inverter by turning it on and plugging in a 100 Watt lamp or equipment.
10. If the inverter is not properly operating, then refer to the Troubleshooting Guide at
the end of this manual.
CAUTION: Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and melted insulation.
