17. Run #6 ground wire through ground lug provided and use a ground rod appropriately distanced to
ground the SolarPod

Standalone.
The DC Breaker Box has a ground bar. The ground bar must be wired to a ground rod.
Ground bar must be wired with AWG #6 or larger wire to a code compliant ground rod.
18. Ensure the solar panels are facing due south and have no shading.
19. Allow some time to let the battery charge (about a day or two; may depend on weather and Sun
exposure).
20. Read the manuals for the charge controller and inverter and get familiar with them.
Model 1003: The outlets in the inverter can take only 120VAC and a maximum of 12A. The
inverter is a modified sine wave inverter.
Model 1004: The outlets in the inverter can take only 120VAC and a maximum of 17A. The
inverter is a pure sine wave inverter.
Model 1005 & 1006: The outlets in the inverter can take only 120VAC / 240VAC and a maximum
of 34A. The inverter is a pure sine wave inverter.
21. The warranties are from the manufacturers of the charge controller, inverter and solar panel
warranties.
22. Ground fault protection :
a. Model #1003: The Powerhub has intergral PV Ground Fault Protection (GFP) hence the GFP on
the MPPT60 has been disabled.
b. Model #1004, 1005 and 1006: The Charge controller to battery and the inverter to battery
are connected through a GFDI breaker.
23. System Voltage:
a. Model #1003 and 1004: 12V DC system. 12V batteries have to be hooked in parallel and not
in series.
b. Model #1005 and 1006: 48V DC system. 148V batteries have to be hooked in series.
