Inverter Wiring Kits

An inverter draws very high DC current, so the cables and fuse between battery and inverter must be sized correctly. Our inverter hookup kits bundle matched cables, a fuse and a fuse block in 150A (#2), 200A (#2/0), 300A and 400A (#4/0) sizes. This collection also includes inverter bypass switches, OutBack bypass assemblies, Magnum remote cables (25 ft and 50 ft), the Xantrex Freedom SW drip shield, and Magnum replacement control boards, FET boards and fans.

How to choose an inverter wiring kit

• Inverter current: divide continuous watts by battery voltage and add margin.
• Cable length: longer runs need heavier cable to limit voltage drop.
• Fuse: install the fuse as close to the battery as possible.
• Bypass: a bypass switch lets you power AC loads from shore if the inverter is offline.

What size cable does a 2000W inverter need?

At 12V a 2000W inverter can draw well over 150A, so heavy cable such as #2/0 to #4/0 is typical depending on length. See our inverter guide.
