Install PV/AC Partition Kit – NE-M Eco systems only
This section applies only to NE-M Eco systems
NE-M Eco systems power some rectifiers from PV (photo voltaic or solar array) and others from ac, typically a generator.
Each terminal block powering rectifiers can be connected to either PV or ac, but not both.
The PV/AC Partition Kit (150028727) divides the Input panel into separate input sections for PV and AC fed terminal
blocks.
The position of the partition is site specific. Follow all site engineering instructions. This position indicated in this section
is only an example.
