Instructions for using GPSW Inverter 150-300 Cables
GPSW150 – 12 V / 24 V
Use the included 3 feet (0.91 m) of #14 AWG wire and automobile DC plug.
When used in conjunction with an automobile DC socket, ensure the DC socket fuse in the automobile fuse box is rated to the inverter load.
For example:
- 100 W = 10 A fuse
- 150 W = 15 A fuse
If the DC automobile plug is removed and/or the inverter is not attached to a battery via an automobile fuse box, attach a 20 A fuse in line with the positive conductor as close to the battery as possible. Extending the included cables may result in excessive voltage drop. Increase the overall cable gauge to the next larger standard size for every 3 feet (0.91 m) extended and do not exceed 10 feet (3.05 m) total inverter cable length.
For example: 10 feet (3.05 m) cable = 10 gauge wire
GPSW300 – 12 V / 24 V
Use the included 4 feet (1.22 m) of #10 AWG wire and Anderson Power Pole connectors.
Attach a 40 A or 20 A when using 24 volt version fuse in line with the positive conductor as close to the battery as possible. Extending the included cables may result in excessive voltage drop. Increase overall cable gauge to the next larger standard size for every 3 feet (0.91 m) extended and do not exceed 10 feet (3.05 m) total inverter cable length.
For example: 10 feet (3.05 m) cable = 6 gauge wire
