Note 1
Inverter AC Input & AC Output connections: Calculations based on full load and charging current, 0.8 derating with 5
current carrying conductors, (L1,L2,L3,2XN) due to possible high harmonic content load. Temperature correction factor
applied when needed.
Note 2
Maximum AC utility service protection feeding the AMPS80 HP is 400 A. The actual supply circuit breaker must be sized
appropriately for the supply wire used. Consult your local and national electrical codes. The AC source must be limited to
18 kA short circuit current. Double neutral is strongly recommended for AC output wiring (and AC input wiring to the MBS)
for 3Ф systems with significant non-linear (ie rectified capacitive) loads. Because the AC input to the inverters is power
factor corrected, AC wiring solely to the inverters does not require double neutral wiring.
