2.2 AC Transfer Switch
Another way to configure the inverter is somewhat different in that the inverter is
turned on but does not power the appliance load on the high output terminal block
as long as outside AC is available. The “idle current” of the inverter is a minimum
1.2 amperes. As shown in Figure 4, both the outside AC and inverter output are
connected on opposite sides of a two-position transfer switch. The switch allows
either the outside AC to power the distribution wiring or the inverter to power the
distribution wiring - never both at the same time. The transfer switch can be either
automatic or manual. There will be a momentary disruption of power when
the appliance load is transferred if the transfer switch operates automatically. A
manually operated transfer switch requires human intervention to change the
switch position and engage the inverter output, so there is a delay until the transfer
switch position is changed.

5.4 Quick Operational Checkout or Emergency Use
You will require:
• One heavy-duty jumper cable set with wire rated at #2 AWG or #4 AWG
• One fully-charged automobile battery
• A common, medium head screwdriver for removal of terminal covers
• A pair of slip joint pliers or wrench that fits the terminal nuts
Checkout procedure:
1. Identify the positive and negative terminals on the 12 volt DC battery and
identify the positive and negative terminals on the inverter.
2. Remove the plastic terminal cover.
3. Using the set of heavy-duty jumper cables, attach one red cable clamp to the
(+) terminal bolt and one black cable clamp on the (–) terminal bolt.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW CLAMPS TO TOUCH.
4. Connect the clamps on the other ends of the jumper cables to the
corresponding positive (+) and negative (–) terminals on the 12 volt DC
vehicle battery. There may be some minor sparking observed.
5. Turn the inverter power switch ON.
6. Plug in a lamp with a 100 watt light bulb and switch the lamp ON. If the
lamp works normally, the inverter is functioning properly and you can proceed
to a permanent installation or continue to use the inverter with low wattage
appliances. If the lamp does not light or does not work correctly:
A. Check all connections and tighten any loose connections.
B. Ensure that the source battery has adequate charge.
C. Check the front panel voltmeter to see if adequate voltage is applied.
If voltage is low, the cables may be too long or the gauge too light.
D. If steps A through C do not correct the problem, contact Vector Technical
Support Department (954) 584-4446 or (866) 584-5504 Ext. 19 for
professional direction.
NOTE: Any appliance or tool used for this type of test or emergency operation
must be designed for 110 VAC (115 VAC RMS), 60 Hertz (Hz) and
have a power consumption of 800 watts or less. The jumper cables are
not designed for operating the inverter at full power.
