Wiring Diagrams Inverter(s) Main Breaker Panel

In Off-Grid single inverter installations with no grid input or generator present, the output
circuit can be sized to 25 Amps x 1.25 = 31.25 A per inverter. Hence switchgear and
overcurrent protection should be sized to 40 Amps.

For Off-Grid installations with a Generator or AC Coupled input, up to 50 Amps can be

provided per inverter and passed through to the Loads. In these cases, a 40-70 Amp input
and output circuit can be utilized (50 x 1.25 = 62.5 Amps per inverter - next sized breaker =
70 A) depending on how much amperage is available to pass through. A 70 Amp breaker will
allow the full 50 Amps to pass through, a 60 Amp breaker will allow 48 Amps of
REC. MIN. BATTERY CAPACITY PER INVERTER > 200AH pass-through.

For installations with AC inputs including Grid,

Amp AC input and output circuit can be utilized
depending on how much amperage is available
