Hello All,
I'm in the process of designing and installing an inverter as an alternate 120v line source in my Imagine XLS 22MLE (which uses a WF-8735 converter), and I've decided that a Go Power TS-30 switch will accomplish the automatic switching I want between inverter power and shore/generator power. However, I want to verify that I have a firm understanding of how to wire my WFCO WF-8735 converter to function properly with the inverter using the TS-30 to control the switching.
I have spent much time on this forum (and other sources) trying to verify and validate my wiring scheme (including reading TucsonJim's excellent article), but have not found an adequate answer. So, let me try to describe how I visualize wiring my converter to work with the inverter and transfer switch - (See attached diagram)
I will be following the suggested wiring diagrams for the WF-8735 and the GP TS-30 for connecting the inverter to the system. To connect the WF-8735 converter, I will be removing the shore power input from the unit and wiring it into the TS-30's N.O. Hot and N.O. Neut. terminals. I will then wire the 120v supply for the converter/charger section of the WF-8735 to the N.O. Hot and N.O. Neut. terminals. Finally, I will wire the main circuit breaker in the breaker bus ("AC Panel") to the COM Hot and COM Neut. terminals. The 2500W inverter will be wired into the N.C. Hot and N.C. Neut. terminals of the TS-30.
Do I have this right? Any comments or corrections are appreciated.
