Introduction
1
Chapter 1, “Introduction” provides information on stacking of Sine
Wave Plus inverters.
The following topics are covered in this chapter.
For this topic:
See:
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
configurations. In other words, you can use two SW Plus 2548 inverters, or two
SW Plus 4048 inverters. You cannot stack a SW Plus 2548 with a SW Plus 4048.
Different types of inverters cannot be intermixed in a stacking configuration.
Models with 230 Vac, 50 Hz, output cannot be series-stacked.
Stacking inverters in a “series” configuration can double the output voltage at the
same current level as an individual inverter.
Series-stacking connects the neutral outputs of each inverter together and enables
the inverters to synchronize their hot outputs to be 180 degrees out-of-phase with
each other. This maintains the wattage output at the rated level, but doubles the
voltage output available, thereby allowing 240 Vac loads to be supported by the
system.
Example: Two series-stacked, Sine Wave Plus 4024 Vac inverters can run both
120 Vac and 240 Vac loads at 33 amps continuous output.
Stacking inverters in a series configuration requires the use of the Inverter
Stacking Control-Series (ISC-S) Cable.

975-0059-01-01 Rev A
The ISC-S Cable
The ISC-S Cable
Required accessory
cable
Stacking two identical inverters requires the use of the Inverter Stacking Control –
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 240 Vac, 60 Hz.
CAUTION: Damage to Equipment
Do not use a standard computer cable in place of the ISC-S cable cable. This ISC-
S cable is custom made for Xantrex to allow series-stacking with the SW Plus
cable.
Use of any other cable may damage your inverters and will not be covered by
Warranty/ Repair.
Xantrex ISC-S Cable
CAUTION: This cable is designed
for series stacking of the SW,
SW Plus, or PS inverters only.
Use of any other cable may damage
your inverter and void it’s warranty.

What it
does
The ISC-S cable provides communication between the two stacked inverters for two
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
does not do
The ISC-S cable does not allow programming or access to the display from one inverter
to the other. If there are changes to the default setting necessary, each inverter must be
programmed separately. This includes selecting “On” in the “On/Off” menu.

Installation

Chapter 2, “Installation” provides information on installing the
DC wiring, AC Wiring, and the ISC-S for Sine Wave Plus inverters.
The following topics are covered in this chapter.
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 the DC positive.
For example:
If you have eight 6-volt batteries in a 24-volt configuration, they would be
arranged in two rows of four batteries (see Appendix C of the Sine Wave Plus
Owner’s Manual for diagrams of various arrangements). The negative ends of
the two “strings” of batteries must be jumpered together to become common
with each other. Likewise, the positive ends of the two “strings” must also be
jumpered together so that they are also common with each other.
Battery-Bank Configuration for Series-stacked Inverters
When using inverters in a stacked configuration, the same battery bank must be
used for both inverters. To ensure even charging of the batteries, each inverter
must be connected to both strings (i.e., positive cable to string two, and negative
cable to string one for inverter 1, and positive cable to string one and negative
separate positive (+) and negative (–) cable pair is required for each inverter in the
series-stacked configuration. This means there will be four battery cables from the
stacked inverters to the battery bank.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for the Sine Wave Plus to determine the correct size
and length of cable required.

Grounding Series-stacked Inverters
To ground series-stacked inverters:
1. Connect the ground bond in the DC disconnect between the inverters and the
batteries to the primary grounding electrode, in accordance with local and
national electrical codes.
2. Connect an appropriately sized ground wire from the chassis bonding ground
lug on the L1 inverter DC end to the ground bond inside the DC disconnect.
3. Connect a second appropriately sized ground wire from the chassis bonding
ground lug on the L2 inverter DC end to a different terminal in the ground
bond inside the DC disconnect.

Installation
Connecting the Battery Bank to the Inverters
To connect the battery (or battery bank) to the inverters:
1. Connect POSITIVE cables:
a) one cable from the battery POSITIVE terminal to a circuit breaker in the
DC disconnect (torque to manufacturer’s recommendations). The DC
disconnect should be located as close to the batteries as possible.
b) a second cable from the same battery POSITIVE terminal to another
circuit breaker in the DC disconnect.
c) a third cable from the first circuit breaker in the DC disconnect to the
L2 inverter POSITIVE (+) terminal.
d) a fourth cable from the second DC disconnect to the L1 inverter
POSITIVE (+) terminal.
2. Connect NEGATIVE cables:
a) one cable from the same battery NEGATIVE terminal (torque to
manufacturer’s recommendations) to the ground bond in the DC
disconnect.
b) a second cable from the same battery NEGATIVE terminal (torque to
manufacturer’s recommendations) to the ground bond in the DC discon-
nect.
c) a third cable from the ground bond in the DC disconnect to the L2 inverter
NEGATIVE (–) terminal.
d) a fourth cable from the ground bond in the DC disconnect to the
L1 inverter NEGATIVE (–) terminal.
3. Ensure the correct polarity of the cables with a DC voltmeter (DVM).
4. Use an insulated 1/2 inch wrench or socket to tighten the 5/16 SAE nuts to
10-15 foot/lb for each inverter input terminal.
5. After tightening the connections on the batteries, apply antioxidant paste to
the battery terminals, if desired. Do not apply antioxidant paste to the inverter
terminals.
6. Install the battery terminal covers (if used)—red for positive, black for
negative—over the inverter DC terminals and secure with the screws and
washers provided.

Installation
AC Wiring - General
Be sure to use the recommended wire and disconnect size as recommended in the
Owner’s Manual for the Sine Wave Plus Inverter.
WARNING
Before connecting any AC wiring, ensure that there is no DC energy accessible by the
inverter by opening the DC disconnect switch(es).
Inverter AC Distribution Panel (Sub-Panel) Wiring (if used)
An Inverter AC Distribution Panel (referred to here as the inverter panel) and AC
conduit must be installed before AC output wiring is connected to the dual
inverters. The inverter panel is a sub-panel to the main utility panel.
Install the Inverter AC Distribution Panel and conduit as follows:
1. Determine the location for the Inverter AC Distribution Panel (i.e., the
sub-panel) and install it according to the manufacturer’s directions.
2. Install an AC conduit to the inverter panel and the inverter.
3. Determine which circuits the inverter will power and install the appropriate
circuit breakers into the inverter panel.
4. For On-Grid systems, remove wires for circuits to be backed up from the main
utility panel and install then in the new inverter (sub) panel.
5. Install a double pole 60-amp maximum (disconnect) main circuit breaker in
the inverter panel: one for each leg of the circuit for L1 and L2.
6. Verify that under no circumstances can utility power or generator power
energize the inverter panel directly while the inverter also energizes the
inverter panel.
WARNING: Shock Hazard
Verify that only one neutral/ground bond exists in the system. Having more than one
neutral to ground bond in a system may create a shock hazard and cause some sensitive
equipment to malfunction.
On-Grid systems always have a ground-to-neutral bond provided by the utility meter or
service entrance, therefore do not need a ground-to-neutral bond made in the inverter
panel. Remove it if present in the sub-panel.
2–6
975-0059-01-01 Rev A
AC Wiring - General
Neutral Bonding
The HOT output of each inverter provides 120 Vac to neutral. The voltage
between the HOT outputs from the L1 and L2 inverter is 240 Vac when the ISC-S
cable is used.
When using a series-stacked, inverter configuration, it is important to provide a
neutral bond between both inverters. Accomplish this bond by establishing an
inverter-to-inverter neutral bond.
Keep the neutral bonding jumper as short as possible to provide a better AC “zero
volt” reference for each inverter to measure AC voltages from, as well as saving
on wire. The neutral bond wire must be the same gauge as the other AC wires
attached to the inverter.
Grounding
Ensure all components are grounded properly for safety and for code-compliance.
WARNING: Hazardous Voltage
When stacking inverters, ensure the chassis of each inverter is connected to the same
common ground (i.e., in the utility or inverter panels); otherwise a hazardous voltage may
be present between the chasses.

Wiring for a 240 Vac-Only Input Source
A 240 Vac source does not allow for the connection to the input of a 120 Vac
inverter as no neutral line is supplied from the utility or generator. In order to use
stacked inverters, a neutral line must be added by using a center-tapped
autotransformer (such as a T240) on the inverter’s input. This will create the
necessary neutral return line for the inverters, and half the voltage for each
inverter to 120 Vac. The output of the inverter supplies both 120 and 240 Vac to
the loads.
The ISC-S cable and autotransformer (capable of handling the system’s power
requirements) are required in this configuration..
To wire the inverters for a 240-Vac only input source:
1. Run GROUND wires (green):
a) from the AC Distribution Panel to the primary earth/ground connection.
b) from the generator ground to the AC Distribution Panel ground.
c) from the ground terminal in the Autotransformer to the AC Distribution
Panel.
d) from the AC Distribution Panel to the Ground bar in the L1 inverter.
e) from the AC Distribution Panel to the Ground bar in the L2 inverter.
2. Run NEUTRAL wires (white):
a) from the center-tapped neutral connection in the autotransformer to the
NEUTRAL 1 terminal in the L1 inverter.
b) from the center-tapped neutral connection in the autotransformer to the
NEUTRAL 1 terminal in the L2 inverter.
c) from the NEUTRAL OUT on the L1 inverter to the NEUTRAL 2
terminal on the L2 inverter.
d) from the Neutral OUT on the L2 inverter to the Neutral terminal in the
AC Distribution Panel.
3. Run HOT wires:
a) (black) from the L1 Output in the generator to the L1 terminal in the
Autotransformer.
b) (black) from the L1 output terminal in the Autotransformer to the
AC2 GEN terminal in the L1 inverter.
c) (black) from the INV OUT terminal in the L1 inverter to the L1 input
terminal in the AC Distribution Panel.
d) (red) from the L2 Output in the generator to the L2 terminal in the
Autotransformer.
e) (red) from the L2 output terminal in the Autotransformer to the AC2 GEN
terminal in the L2 inverter.
f) (red) from the INV OUT terminal in the L2 inverter to the L2 input
terminal in the AC Distribution Panel.
4. Torque all inverter terminal block connections to 25 inch-pounds.

Chapter 3, “Operation”contains information on startup and functional
testing procedures for series-stacked Sine Wave Plus inverters.
The following topics are covered in this chapter.
For this topic:
See:
Operation
Start-up and Testing
Stacked inverters must operate together in order to provide the 120/240 Vac to the
loads. The ISC-S cable ensures the output from each inverter is 180 degrees
out-of-phase for operating 240 Vac loads.
To start up and test the inverters:
1. Ensure the circuit breakers on all AC sources (utility or generator, if any)
feeding the inverters are OFF.
2. Ensure the circuit breakers in the AC distribution panel (sub-panel) are OFF.
3. Switch ON both inverters. The inverters should be providing 120/240 Vac to
the AC distribution panel.
4. In the AC distribution panel, use an AC voltmeter and measure the voltage
between the L1 (HOT) terminal and the neutral bus. This voltage should be
5. In the AC distribution panel, use an AC voltmeter and measure the voltage
between the L2 (HOT) terminal and the neutral bus. This voltage should be
6. In the AC distribution panel, measure the voltage between the L1 (HOT) and
for testpoint locations.
7. If all voltages/tests are correct,
a) switch on the circuit breakers in the AC distribution panel, and
b) switch on the generator or utility circuit breakers feeding the inverters.
8. Verify the inverters are charging the batteries and powering the AC
distribution panel.
9. Switch both inverters OFF and open the circuit breakers to ensure all AC and
DC power is turned OFF to the inverters.
10. Replace all covers and panels on the inverters and sub-panel.
11. The series-stacked inverter system is now tested and ready for use.
If the inverters are not operating properly, please refer to the Sine Wave Plus
Operator’s Manual for setup and troubleshooting information.

Operation
Setting Changes
When operating a Sine Wave Plus in a series-stacked configuration, the following
settings must be changed for proper operation.
See the Owner’s Manual for the Sine Wave Plus for detailed instructions on
accessing and changing the settings using the Inverter Control Module (ICM) on
the inverter.
Automatic and Manual Generator Control
When multiple inverters are used with a generator, the inverter connected to the
generator via the Generator Start Module (GSM) is designated as the “generator
controlling” inverter. The most efficient battery charging is achieved by setting
the charging parameters of each inverter slightly differently.
Bulk and Float Charging Parameters
Change the Bulk and Float Charging settings as follows:
•
•
•
Set the 12B BULK VOLTS DC to the same setting on both inverters.
Set the 12C FLOAT VOLTS DC to the same setting on both inverters.
On the non-generator-controlling inverter (the inverter not connected to a
GSM), set the charging time for a shorter period than on the generator
controlling inverter. This is accomplished by setting the 12F BULK DONE
AMPS to a higher setting. If the 12F BULK DONE AMPS is set to zero (0), then
the 12H MAX BULK/EQ Timer h:m should be set to a shorter time period on
the non-generator-controlling inverter.
Equalize Charging
Change the Equalize Charging settings as follows:
•
Set both inverters to the same 12D EQUALIZE VOLTS DC setting.
•
Set the 12G EQ VDC DONE TIMER H:M on the “generator controlling” inverter
to a shorter equalize time.
To start an Equalize charge (manually or automatically), set both inverters to EQ
by scrolling to 01B EQ CHARGE ON/OFF and selecting ON.
During the equalize charge, the Bulk LED will slowly flash on each inverter,
indicating the EQ selection has been enabled.
3–4
975-0059-01-01 Rev A
Setting Changes
Automatic Generator Equalize Charging
If the inverters are set to automatically charge the batteries using the generator, the
equalize process will begin during the next, automatically started, generator run
period. When the equalizing process has completed, the generator automatically
stops and the cursor returns to the OFF position in the 01B EQ CHARGE menu
item on the generator-controlling inverter. The non-generator-controlling inverter
must be set from EQ to OFF from the 01B EQ CHARGE menu item or it will start
another equalize charge the next time the generator is started.
Manual Equalize Charging
If the batteries were equalized using a manually started generator or from the
utility grid, the FLOAT LED illuminates, indicating the equalization process is
complete. Set the cursor to OFF on both inverters under the 01B EQ CHARGE
menu item when the equalization process is complete.
Important: If using multiple battery temperature sensors (BTS) ensure they are all
connected to the same location (battery).
