REVERSE POLARITY DAMAGE
Make sure the wires are connected properly. Improper connections
(connecting a line conductor to a neutral conductor, for example)
will cause the Freedom X to malfunction and may permanently
damage the inverter. Damage caused by a reverse polarity
connection is not covered by your warranty.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment
damage.
Wiring Knockouts
When installing wires to the AC terminals, the AC input and output
holes are provided to accommodate ½" trade-size strain relief
clamps. If larger cables and strain relief clamps are needed,
