Introduction Stacking Inverters Two identical, series-stacked, inverters can be connected together for the following purposes. The voltage output of a single inverter is insufficient to power the 240 Vac loads attached to the system; Multi-wire branch circuits exists in the current structure. Please see Appendix F, “Multi-wire Branch Circuit Wiring”, in the Sine Wave Plus Owner’s Manual for additional information. Important: Inverter types and models must be identical for stacking confi

The ISC-S Cable The ISC-S Cable Required accessory Stacking two identical inverters requires the use of the Inverter Stacking Control – cable Series Cable (ISC-S cable). The ISC-S cable is a special cable specifically designed for series-stacking two identical inverters. It consists of one 36-inch stacking control cable with two 25-pin D connectors. It connects to the “Stacking Ports” on the respective inverters and allows the AC output of two (identical) inverters to provide both 120 and 2

What it The ISC-S cable provides communication between the two stacked inverters for two does purposes. It provides synchronization information for inverting and charging. It provides a method for one inverter detecting an error condition to send a shut- down command to the other inverter, to prevent a 240Vac load from only receiving one leg of power. What it The ISC-S cable does not allow programming or access to the display from one inverter does not do to the other. If there are change

Installation DC Wiring The success of series-stacked, inverter systems is dependent on the quality and maintenance of the DC connections. Stacked inverter sets are far less forgiving to long, undersized, uneven, and/or poor connections than are single inverters. Battery Requirements for Series-stacked Inverters When inverters are “stacked” they must operate from a common battery bank. In other words, the DC negative of one inverter must be common with the second inverter and likewise for th
