Exhaust Air Vents - These cut-outs are used as ventilation openings. Air is drawn in through the front of the Inverter/
Charger and passes through to keep the electronics cool for optimum performance.
Serial Number Label - This label displays the unit serial number, date of manufacture and Inverter / Charger specifications.
AC Input Circuit Breaker - CB1 & CB2 - These circuit breakers protect the unit’s internal charger wiring and pass-thru relay when in AC pass through mode. Press in to reset. The input circuit breakers are not branch-rated.
AC Access Cover - Remove this panel to get access to the internal wiring terminal block. This terminal block is used to hardwire all inverter AC input and output wiring connections.
Built-In Handles - Use these handles to safely move the Inverter / Charger.
WARNING: Turning the unit OFF does not disconnect the batteries or AC power source. Therefore the “AC output load” is still active.
CAUTION: This Inverter does not include any output circuit breakers. So 20A branch-rated circuit breakers must be installed in the inverters output wiring (breaker panel).
CAUTION: The Inverter’s internal transfer AC transfer relay is rated for 50 amps a leg. The pass-thru current must be no greater than 50 amps a leg or damage to the relays and/or the input circuit breakers may occur.

INSTALLATION
3.2 LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
The GP-IC-2000 Inverter Charger must be installed in a location that meets the following requirements.
1. TEMPERATURE
Make sure the GP-IC-2000 is installed in a location where the normal air temperature is between 0 °C and 50 °C. The cooler the better within this range. Note the GP-IC-2000 maximum output wattage will derate in temperatures above 45 °C.
2. MOISTURE
Do not allow water or other fluids to come into contact with the GP-IC-2000. Do not expose to rain, snow or water.
CAUTION! Equipment Damage.
Installing the GP-IC-2000 in environments where moisture may occur will cause the Inverter/Charger to be exposed to the harmful effects of corrosive environments and certain components service lifes’ will be compromised and not covered by the warranty.
3. VENTILATION
For optimum Inverter/Charger performance the GP-IC-2000 must be installed so the front, side and rear air vents are not blocked or obstructed in any way. Do not install the GP-IC-2000 in an area with limited air flow. Allow as much space around the Inverter
/ Charger as possible, leaving at least 6” of airspace clearance around all ventilation areas.
CAUTION! Equipment Damage.
Do not mount the GP-IC-2000 in a zero clearance compartment. Do not cover the ventilation openings. Overheating and mechanical failure may occur.
4. FIRE
Install the GP-IC-2000 away from the battery bank, away from any flammable or combustible material (paper, flammable liquids, gasoline, cloths) that may be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Never place the Inverter/Charger directly above the battery bank
- gases from the batteries will corrode and damage the Inverter/Charger, never allow battery acid to drip onto the unit.
5. ACCESSIBILITY / ORIENTATION
Do not block access to the GP-IC-2000 remote control and battery temperature access ports, status LEDs and the On/Off switch.
Allow enough room to access the AC and DC wiring terminals and connections as they will need to be checked and tightened periodically. The GP-IC-2000 must be installed in one of the approved mounting orientations detailed on page 17.
6. CLEAN
The GP-IC-2000 should be installed in a location which is clean and limits the introduction of dust, fumes, insects or rodents which could enter and block the Inverter/Chargers ventilation openings.
7. PROXIMITY TO BATTERY BANK
The GP-IC-2000 should be located as close to the batteries as possible but not within the same compartment. The length and size of the DC Cables will affect performance. Long DC wires tend to lose efficiency and reduce the overall performance of the
Inverter/Charger. Use the DC cables recommended on page 20.

3.4 GENERAL WIRING SPECIFICATIONS
The following sections detail how the GP-IC-2000 should be wired. Before starting any wiring read and understand these instructions. Wiring should meet all local codes and standards and be performed by qualified personnel such as a licensed electrician.
The NEC (National electrical Code) and CEC (Canadian Electrical Code) provide the standards for safely wiring, wire sizes, over-current protection, installation methods and requirements.
The GP-IC-2000 system can handle power from multiple sources (utility, generator and batteries) which make the wiring hazardous and challenging.
The input and output AC and DC circuits are isolated from the inverter/charger chassis. The Inverter/Charger grounding is the responsibility of the installer in accordance with NEC/CEC or the local electrical codes.
CABLE PROTECTION
All the DC and AC cables leading to / from the GP-IC-2000 must be protected as required by code. This can be accomplished using jacketed (armoured) cable or by feeding the wire through conduit.
CABLE STRAIN RELIEF & TORQUE REQUIREMENTS
The GP-IC-2000 AC input / output terminals can handle multi-core cables up to 1.3” diameter. If using large diameter cable it is highly recommended to use additional (non metallic) cable strain relief clamps mounted outside the Inverter / Charger these will ease the torque and leverage forces which could be present at the cable entry/exit locations.
Torque all AC and DC wiring connections to 16 in lbf (1.8 N-m), make sure the connections are secure and re-check all connections periodically (at least every 6 months, more frequent for heavy RV use) to make sure they remain secure.
CABLE REQUIREMENTS
• Protect all conductors which may be at risk of physical damage by using conduit, tape or place them in a raceway.
• Do not mix AC and DC Wiring in the same conduit or panel. Where DC wiring must cross AC, try to make sure the wires cross perpendicular to each other.
• Both AC and DC over-current protection must be provided.
• The Inverter/Charger requires a reliable negative and ground return path to the battery.
• Use only copper wires with a minimum temperature rating of 75 °C.
CABLE LAYOUT PLANNING
Before connecting any cables, determine all cable routes to / from the GP-IC-2000.
• AC Input cables from the external transfer switch (if using shore and generator).
• DC Input cables from the batteries.
• AC Output cables from the Inverter / Charger to the AC breaker panel.
• Battery Temperature Sensor cable from the Inverter / Charger to the batteries.
• Remote Control cable to the Inverter / Charger.
• Ground wiring to / from the Inverter / Charger.

3.5 DC WIRING
Main Panel
The cables linking the GP-IC-2000 to the battery bank are the DC cables. These cables handle the Direct Current power used to charge the batteries (Charging Mode) and power the main appliances (Inverter Mode). It is important to select the correct wire size and to provide adequate over-current protection between the Inverter / Charger and battery bank.

Fuse or Circuit Breaker
Battery Bank
The following points must be observed for the DC Wiring.
• The DC positive and negative cables connected to the GP-IC-2000 from the battery bank should be linked together with zip ties or electrical tape every 6”. This helps to reduce radio frequency interference and reduces the effects of inductance both of which improve the Inverter / Charger waveform and reduces the wear of the Inverters filter capacitors.
• To ensure optimum Inverter/charger performance the number of connections between the battery bank and the
GP-IC-2000 unit should be minimized except from the over-current and battery disconnect devices. All additional connection points will cause extra voltage drops.
• The Battery bank voltage must match the DC voltage required by the GP-IC-2000, which is 12V. Do not connect a 24V battery bank to the GP-IC-2000.
• All DC cable wire terminations should use a crimped and sealed copper ring terminal lugs. Lugs with an 8mm
(5/16”) hole should be used to connect the DC cables to the Inverter / Chargers DC terminals.
• Make sure all cables have a smooth bend radius and no kinks are present.
• Colour code all DC Cables coming to / from the battery bank. Use coloured electrical tape or heat shrink tubing.

3.5.1 DC WIRE SIZING
The distance between the battery bank and the GP-IC-2000 should be as short as possible to achieve maximum efficiency and to reduce fire hazards. The cables should be as short as possible and the overall length of both cables added together should be less than 10 ft (3m) to comply with code requirements. Keeping your wire runs as short as possible helps to prevent: low voltage shutdowns and nuisance tripping of the DC breaker because of increased current draw. The table below shows the recommended DC cable size, fuses/circuit breakers and DC grounding cable sizes for the GP-IC-2000 ( Note: these values are correct for cables in free air, not conduit)

3.5.2 DC OVERCURRENT PROTECTION AND DC DISCONNECT
Batteries are capable of providing very large currents in case of a short circuit, if this occurs with no DC overcurrent protection, it will result in overheating and melting of the cables and possibly serious injury and/or fire.
DC overcurrent protection is not included with the GP-IC-2000. It must be installed between the Inverter / Charger and battery bank for safety reasons and to comply with code regulations.
Use a very fast acting DC fuse or circuit breaker in the positive cable, the fuse should be installed as close to possible to the battery positive terminal. Ideally the fuse/circuit breaker should be installed within 18” (45cm of the battery). The fuse required for DC Cable lengths up to 5ft is detailed in the above table.
In all installations a battery disconnect switch is required, if you install a circuit breaker for overcurrent protection this will suffice as a disconnect switch. If you install a fuse for overcurrent protection then a separate disconnect switch will need to be installed.
3.5.3 PREPARING THE DC CABLES
Go Power! supplies 2 ring lugs with the GP-IC-2000 which can be used for the Inverter / Charger end of the DC Cables. Source the correct ring terminals for the batteries you are using.
• Cut the negative and positive cables to the required length.
• Strip off enough insulation so you can install the ring lugs provided.
• Use the correct crimp connector to install the ring lugs.
• Attach the connectors to both ends of both cables. Make sure no stray wire strands protrude from the connectors.
3.5.4 DC CABLE CONNECTIONS
When installing the battery cable ring lug onto the GP-IC-2000 DC terminal and the battery post - do not put anything between the ring lug and the metal surface. Incorrectly installed hardware causes a high resistance connection which could lead to poor
Inverter/Charger performance and may melt the cable and terminal connections. Refer to figures on page 21 to connect the
DC Cables and to install the hardware correctly. Use a 13mm wrench or socket to tighten the M8 x 1.25mm Nuts. Tighten the terminal connections securely and periodically check the connections to make sure they remain tight and secure.
To help prevent seizing and corrosion around the terminals the use of an anti-seize lubricant is highly recommended. Apply the antioxidant grease or spray after all the connections are made and tightened.

3.5.5 BATTERY TEMPERATURE SENSOR INSTALLATION
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) extends the life of the battery by preventing overcharging in warm temperatures and undercharging in cold temperatures. The BTS provides the Inverter / Charger with precise battery temperature information to automatically adjust the absorb and float charge voltage set points. If the BTS is NOT installed and the battery bank is subjected to large temperature changes the battery life will be reduced.
• Install the battery temperature sensor ring terminal onto the NEGATIVE battery terminal.
• Route the sensor’s cable to the Inverter / Charger following existing wire runs.
• Connect the RJ11 connector end of the BTS cable to the ‘Battery Temp’ port on the Inverter / Charger.

WIRING THE INVERTER/CHARGER TO THE BATTERY BANK 3.5.6
WARNING: Lethal currents will be present if the positive and negative cables attached to the battery bank touch each other. During the installation and wiring process, ensure the cable ends are insulated or covered to prevent shorting the cables.
WARNING: DO NOT connect the DC Wires from the battery bank to the GP-IC-2000 until all the DC and AC wiring is complete and the AC and DC overcurrent protection has been installed.
The GP-IC-2000 is a 12V Inverter/Charger so the battery bank must be wired in series, parallel, or series-parallel to provide the correct voltage: 12V. Example battery configurations are shown on page 23. The interconnecting wires between the individual batteries must be sized and rated exactly the same as those used between the battery bank and Inverter / Charger.
For the GP-IC-2000 to perform optimally a 200Ahr battery bank must be used for light/moderate loads (<1000W) and for heavy loads of 1000W> a 400Ahr battery bank is recommended.
To ensure the best performance from your Inverter / Charger system, batteries should be the same size, type, rating and age.
Do not use old or untested batteries.
WARNING: The Inverter / Charger is not reverse polarity protected. If the Inverter / Charger is wired incorrectly severe damage will occur and will not be covered by the warranty. It is advised to clearly mark the positive and negative cables coming from the battery bank. Use red and black electrical tape to clearly indicate positive and negative cables.
240 VAC
DC Positive and Negative Wires
• Connect the negative cable from the battery bank negative terminal to the Inverter / Chargers negative terminal.
Mount the DC circuit breaker or fuse assembly and leave open (no power to the GP-IC-2000). Connect the positive cables from the circuit breaker / fuse to the battery bank and to the Inverter / Chargers positive terminal.
• Ensure the DC wire connections are flush on the surface of the DC terminals and the hardware used to hold these connections are stacked correctly. Verify all DC connections are secured tightly.
• Attach the red and black terminal covers (see below) over the Inverter / Chargers DC connectors and secure them in place with the supplied screws.

3.5.8 DC GROUNDING
To protect against electrical shock hazards the GP-IC-2000 metal chassis must be connected to the DC grounding system. The
DC grounding system is sometimes referred to as the Earth ground or another designated ground. For example on an RV, the metal frame of the RV is designated as the negative DC ground / RV ground. On a boat, the ground is simply referred to as boat ground.
The GP-IC-2000 consists of a DC and an AC section that are isolated through a transformer. Both these sections are required to be grounded appropriately.
The DC ground wire connection on the GP-IC-2000 is used to connect the exposed chassis of the Inverter / Charger to the DC grounding system. Use copper wire that is either bare or provided with green insulation. This terminal accepts CU/AL conductors from #14 to #2 AWG (2.1 to 33.6mm2). The size of this conductor should be coordinated with the size of the over-current devices used.
240 VAC
In Marine Applications the DC Ground wire has to be the same size as the battery negative cable. To attach a larger gauge wire follow these steps;
• Remove the M8mm nut and star washer holding the DC ground wire to the metal chassis.

• Remove the connection boss and store safely.
AC INPUT
BATTERY
TEMP
• Attach the correctly sized ground cable with a ring terminal to the GP_IC-2000 Chassis, the ring terminal must have a hole size ≥ 1/4”.
INV. AC
OUTPUT
• Place the M8mm nut and star washer over the ground cable and securely tighten the nut.
DC grounding involves proper grounding of the negative of the battery, the DC panel and the DC side of the GP-IC-2000. the DC panel is normally used to connect the batteries and distribute DC power to the Inverter / Charger and to the other DC loads.
A common earth ground should be used to bond the Inverter/Charger, negative bus bar and the negative battery terminal.
All connections must be tight against bare metal. Use star washers to penetrate paint and corrosion.

3.6 AC WIRING
The cables linking the GP-IC-2000 to the main panel and the sub panel are the AC cables. These cables handle the incoming alternating current (AC) utility or generator power which can be passed through the Inverter / Charger to directly power the main appliances (pass through mode) and/or used to charge the batteries (charging mode). It is important to select the correct wire size and to provide adequate over-current protection between the Inverter / Charger main panel and sub panel.

The following points must be observed for the AC Wiring
• Review the safety information at the start of this manual before completing any AC wire installation steps.
• All AC Wiring must be approved for the application (RV, Marine, Residential). For RV applications, this may be solid wire in multi-conductor cables, but stranded wire is required if single conductors are used.
• All wiring must be rated to 75°C or higher.
GP-IC-2000
• Do not connect the AC Output to an AC Power source (generator / shore power). Severe damage may occur and will not be covered under the warranty.
• Always use properly rated circuit breakers / fuses.
Negative Bus Bar
• Color code and label all AC Cables coming to / from the GP-IC-2000. Use colored electrical tape or heat shrink tubing.

3.6.1 AC POWER SOURCE TYPES
AC Input power to the GP-IC-2000 can be supplied from a split-phase or dual-input single phase AC source. These sources typically include utility power or a generator.
• Split Phase: This source has 4 lines: 2 hot lines, one neutral and one ground. The 2 hot lines are 120VAC and are 180 degrees out of phase with each other, so that the 2 voltages equal 240VAC. The voltage between each hot line and neutral is 120VAC and the voltage between the neutral and ground is approximately zero. Because the 2 lines are out of phase, the currents from each line subtract in the neutral, and the neutral current will be approximately zero if the loads on each line are equal. For example if Hot 1 is supplying 20A and Hot 2 is supplying
15A, the current in the neutral will be 5A.
• Dual Input: This source has 4 lines: 2 Hot lines, one neutral and one ground. The 2 Hot Lines are 120VAC and are in phase and must come from the same source. The voltage between the 2 hot lines is zero. The voltage between each hot line and the neutral is 120VAC and the voltage between the neutral and the ground is approximately zero.
Because the 2 lines are in phase, the currents from each line add together in the neutral. For example if Hot 1 is supplying 20A and Hot 2 is supplying 15A, the current in the neutral will be 35A.
3.6.2 AC WIRE SIZE AND OVERCURRENT PROTECTION
The wires used for the Input AC and Output AC must be sized to meet local electrical safety requirements. The AC wiring must be protected from short circuits and overloads by an overcurrent protection device, these requirements are usually met using a main panel and sub panel (with suitable circuit breakers/fuses installed) located before and after the Inverter / Charger as shown on pages 30 - 33.
CAUTION: The GP-IC-2000 inverters internal transfer contacts are rated for 50 amps, the pass-thru current for relay contact must be no greater than 50 amps or damage to this relay may occur.
3.6.3 GFCI (GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTION) OUTLETS
Compliance with UL standards requires that Go Power! test and recommend specific GFCIs for use on the AC output of the
GP-IC-2000. GFCIs shall be installed in the AC output wiring system to protect all branch circuits.
A GFCI is a device that de–energizes a circuit when a current exceeds a specified value that is less than that required to open the circuit breaker. GFCIs are intended to protect people from electric shocks and are usually required in wet or damp locations.
The table below lists GFCIs that have been tested and will function properly when connected to the AC output of the GP-IC-2000.

The GP-IC-2000 has a six-pole AC terminal block and two AC ground terminals to connect the Inverter / Chargers AC input and output wiring.
The terminal block and ground terminals can be accessed by removing the three Phillips screws holding the AC cover plate.
Each connection on the AC terminal block is rated to accept one #14 to #6 AWG CU stranded wire, or two #12 AWG CU stranded wires. Use a flat head screwdriver to release and tighten the set screws.
The AC ground terminals can accept two #14 to #6 AWG CU stranded wire. Use a flat head screwdriver to release and tighten the set screws.
The GP-IC-2000’s ACN-IN and ACN-OUT terminals are electrically isolated from each other when in ‘inverting mode’ this helps to prevent ground-loops. If the installation requires the AC Input and AC Output neutrals to be connected together, the Inverter
/ Chargers neutral-to-ground connection must be disconnected (See section 3.6.11).

AC WIRING CHECKS
• Ensure all wires are secured. In RV applications use zip ties or other non-conductive fasteners to prevent chaffing or damage from movement and vibration.
• Ensure strain reliefs or grommets are in place to prevent damage to the wiring or conduit where it passes through the walls/bulkheads or other openings.
• If using large diameter multi core cable add additional external non-conductive strain relief(s) to prevent damage to the Inverter / Charger case.
• After checking all AC connections and ensuring all the terminal set screws are tightened securely, replace the AC
Cover Plate, 3 x Phillips set screws and the covers on the main and sub panels.
AC WIRING FOR MARINE APPLICATIONS
To comply with ABYC requirements for marine installations, all wire connections into the AC terminal blocks must be protected with stainless steel wire protectors such as pin terminals to prevent wire damage from the set screw. gpelectric.com | [page 29]

Operating high current draw loads (such as air conditioning units) could severely deplete the battery bank power quickly.
* All previous converter / charger wiring must be disconnected from the breaker panel. The GP-IC-2000 is now used for battery bank charging

The GP-IC-2000 should always be connected to a permanent, grounded wiring system. An Inverter / Charger system that is properly grounded will reduce the risk of electric shock, reduce radio frequency noise. The main aim of any grounding system is to provide a well defined, very low resistance path from the electrical system to the grounding system. The low resistance grounding path carries fault currents directly to ground if the electrical system malfunctions.
AC Terminal Block
IN 1
The neutral and safety ground should be connected at the AC source. The AC source could be shore power (utility power), generator or the Inverter (battery bank). The AC neutral should be connected to one safety ground at a time , this single connection is required to make the electrical panels neutral line safe by connecting it to ground. If more than one connection between the neutral and ground is made, currents can circulate between neutral and ground and cause ground loop currents.
240 VAC 120 VAC
GFCI
Outlet
Ground loop currents can trip GFCIs and cause an electric shock hazard.
AC Neutral from main panel
When using the GP-IC-2000 in Inverting mode and having multiple other AC power sources (shore or generator power), there is the potential of having multiple connections between neutral and ground. The GP-IC-2000 automatically switches the neutral to ground when switching from Inverting to AC Pass through mode.
#8 AWG
In Inverting mode the relays switch to position 1. This means the AC neutral output is connected to the chassis ground on the
GP-IC-2000 which is usually connected to the Earth ground on the RV, work truck or boat.

INSTALLATION
3.6.12 GROUNDING ON BOATS
If you are installing the GP-IC-2000 on a boat there are some specific guidelines/standards to follow. The Inverter / Charger must be installed adhering to the standards of the AYBC (American Boat and Yacht Council). Some guidelines are outlined below but these notes do not replace the full guidelines detailed in the AYBC standard, always install the GP-IC-2000 using the AYBC standard as the primary reference.
Safe AC and DC Ground Connection
As detailed in the last section when the AC power source is being supplied by shore power (Marina) the on board neutral must be connected to the safety ground on the dock. This feature is automatically taken care of by the GP-IC-2000. When the AC power source is being supplied by the Inverter (battery bank) the on board neutral must be connected to the common boat ground.
The DC ground terminal must also be connected to the common boat ground. This ensures that both the AC and DC ground are connected to one common boat ground.
Corrosion
The GP-IC-2000 AC and DC terminals must be connected to the common boat ground to provide an important safety feature.
This ground connection can introduce the risk of galvanic corrosion and/or electrolysis of the boats underwater metallic hardware.
A galvanic isolator or an on board isolation transformer can be used to prevent galvanic corrosion.

INSTALLATION
3.7 FINAL INSPECTION
1. Verify all cables / conduit runs are secured with zip ties or other non-conductive cable clamps to prevent damage from vibration.
2. Ensure all cables that pass through walls, bulkheads or any other openings are protected against abrasion by using strain reliefs and/or grommets.
3. Check all AC, DC and ground connections are securely tightened, and if required covered with suitable anti-seizing grease.
4. Check the AC terminal connection cover plate has been securely re-attached.
5. Check all connections are secure in the main and sub panels - replace all covers.
6. If required by code, have the installation inspected by an electrical inspector.
3.8 TESTING THE INSTALLATION
1. Apply battery power to the inverter by engaging the fuse, switching the breaker or switching the battery disconnect switch to the ON position. The GP-IC-2000 will remain off.
2. Disconnect all AC loads from the breaker panel by switching the main on/off breaker to OFF.
3. Press the ON/OFF button. Verify the inverters status indicator is solid green (ON).
4. Connect a 25W light bulb to the inverter output and verify it comes on and shines normally.
5. Press and release the ON/OFF button to turn the Inverter / Charger off, the bulb will turn off and the status indicator will turn off.
6. Apply AC shore power (utility or generator) to the GP-IC-2000. After around 10 seconds the Inverter / Charger will click and the incoming power will be passed through and the light bulb will turn on. The status indicator will be green.
7. The inverter is currently OFF because the AC shore power is powering the light bulb. Press and release the ON/OFF switch on the GP-IC-2000 to turn on the Inverter.
8. Disconnect the AC shore power, the light bulb should remain on and is now being powered by the Inverter (battery bank).
3.9 WARNING LABELS
When an Inverter / Charger is installed in a building the NEC requires a label or plaque to be provided. This label / plaque is required to be easily visible and to provide information that informs users of the location of all electrical system disconnects.
Buildings with stand alone power systems (solar, generator) and utility power must have a permanent plaque or directory providing the location of both system disconnects.
An Inverter warning label should be installed in a clearly visible location on the breaker panel that is being powered by the GP-
IC-2000. This label is used because it might be falsely assumed that the panel is no longer “live” after the AC Shore Power is turned off, when power may actually still be available from the Inverter (battery bank) powering the sub panel.

When the GP-IC-2000 is first connected to the battery bank the ON/OFF switch must be lightly pressed to turn the Inverter ON.
Once the Inverter has been turned ON, pressing the ON/OFF switch turns the Inverter on and off.
WARNING: The ON/OFF switch does not turn the battery charger or remove AC pass through mode. If AC power is connected to the AC Input, this AC power will also be available on the AC output and is not controlled by the Power

The GP-IC-2000 has two basic operating modes: Inverting and AC power pass through. Within these two modes the GP-IC-2000 functions differently depending on the load power and shore power specifications/requirements. These different operating modes are outlined over the following pages.
SEARCH MODE
When the Inverter in the GP-IC-2000 is turned ON, the automatic search function is enabled. This feature is used to conserve battery power when no AC power is required (no appliances being used).
In search mode the GP-IC-2000 continually scans the AC output looking for an AC load (appliance turned on). When an AC appliance is turned on, an AC load is registered at the AC output and the Inverter switches ON and supplies AC power (from the battery bank) to the appliance.
The AC load required to switch the Inverter ON is set to 5W as a factory default value. The search feature can be turned OFF and can be adjusted between 5 and 50W - to adjust these values the GP-IC-Remote must be used (this can be purchased separately from Go Power!).

OPERATION
BATTERY CHARGER SPECIFICATIONS
The GP-IC-2000 is equipped with a PFC (Power Factor Corrected) and PI (Proportional Integral) multistage battery charger.
These 2 features maximize the real power from AC Shore Power. The multistage battery charger can use up to four different charging stages to help monitor and keep the batteries healthy.
Bulk Charging: This is the initial stage of charging. While bulk charging, the charger supplies the battery bank with controlled constant current. The charger will remain in bulk charge until the absorption charge voltage is achieved.
Absorb Charging: This is the second charging state and begins after the absorb voltage has been reached. Absorb charging provides the batteries with a constant voltage and reduces the DC charging current in order to maintain the absorb voltage setting.
The factory default setting for absorb charging is 2 hours. After 2 hours of absorb charging the charger switches to final charge.
Final (Float) Charging: The third charging stage occurs at the end of absorb charging time. While final charging, the charge voltage is reduced to the final charge voltage set point. In this stage, the batteries are kept fully charged and ready if needed by the Inverter. The final (float) charging stage reduces battery gassing, minimizes watering requirements and ensures the batteries are maintained at optimum capacity.

Equalization Charging: The EQ charging is used to stir up stratified electrolyte and to reverse any battery plate sulfation that may have occurred. The EQ charging mode can only be used with the GP-IC-Remote, sold separately by Go Power!.

4.7 BATTERY TEMPERATURE SENSOR (BTS) OPERATION
The GP-IC-2000 is delivered with a battery temperature sensor. By installing this sensor the charge voltages are automatically adapted for deviating temperature. With a BTS installed , if the temperature around the BTS is below 20°C the absorb and float charge voltage increases. If the temperature around the BTS is above 20°C, the absorb and float charge voltage decreases. The graph below details how much the charge voltage changes (increases or decreases) depending on the temperature reading of the BTS.
4.8 FACTORY DEFAULT VALUES
The GP-IC-2000 uses default values for the following adjustable settings;

OPERATION
4.9 GP-IC-2000 FAULT CONDITIONS
The GP-IC-2000 is protected against fault conditions and in normal use it will be rare to see any. If a fault condition does occur, the GP-IC-2000 will shut down as a safety measure to protect itself, the battery bank and the AC loads. The following fault conditions could be the cause of Inverter / Charger shut down;
LOW BATTERY The GP-IC-2000 will shut off whenever the battery bank voltage falls to the LBCO (Low Battery Cut Out) level to protect the batteries from being over-discharged. When the Inverter / Charger has reached the LBCO and turned off, the unit will automatically restart when AC shore power is supplied to the AC Input and the battery bank voltage rises above the LBCI
(Low Battery Cut In) 12.5 VDC level
HIGH BATTERY The GP-IC-2000 will shut off whenever the battery bank voltage approaches the HBCO (High Battery Cut
Out) level the Inverter / Charger will automatically shut down to prevent un-regulated AC output voltage being supplied to the AC loads. The unit will automatically restart when the battery bank voltage falls below the HBCI (High Battery Cut In) 14.5 VDC level
OVER TEMPERATURE - The GP-IC-2000 monitors the temperature of several key components within the Inverter / Charger - if these components begin to exceed their safe operating temperature level, the unit will shutdown to protect itself. The unit will automatically restart after the unit cools down.
OVERLOAD - When the GP-IC-2000 is in Inverting or AC pass through mode, the Inverter / Charger monitors the current levels, in the event of a short circuit or an overload condition the unit will shut down. To start operating after this fault, the Inverter /
Charger must be turned on using the on/off switch on the unit or remote control once the AC loads are reduced / removed.
INTERNAL FAULT - The GP-IC-2000 continues to monitor several internal components, if a condition occurs that does not allow normal operation the Inverter / Charger will shut down to protect itself, the battery bank and the AC loads. To start operating after this fault, the Inverter / Charger must be turned on using the on/off switch on the unit or remote control
4.10 MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
The GP-IC-2000 is designed to be service-free, even though there are no user serviceable parts, it is recommended that every
6 months you perform the following maintenance steps to ensure optimum performance and extend the life of your batteries.
• Visually inspect the batteries for cracks, leaks or swelling - replace if necessary.
• Use baking soda to clean and remove any electrolyte spills or buildups.
• Check and tighten all battery terminal connections.
• Check and fill battery water levels in flooded lead acid batteries.
• Check individual battery voltages (load test those that have a voltage difference of more than 0.3 VDC from each other) replace if necessary.
• Check the Inverter / Chargers ventilation vents - clean if necessary.
• Visually inspect all cables in both the DC and AC systems - check for wear/abrasion - replace if necessary and ensure strain reliefs and cable protection is installed to prevent future damage.
• Check and tighten the Inverter / Chargers AC terminal block connections.
• Check the ground connections are secure on the Inverter / Charger, Battery Bank, Main / Sub Panels and the
Earth Ground on the RV, Boat.
• Check the battery sensor is still securely attached to the battery bank.

OPERATION
Symptom
No output power.
Inverter LED is
OFF
Possible Cause
Inverter is switched OFF
Battery voltage is too low. The battery voltage level has dropped below the Low Battery Cut
Off (LBCO)
Battery voltage is too high. The Inverter automatically resets and resumes operation when the battery voltage level has dropped below the HBCI set point.
Over-temperature condition: The internal temperature of the Inverter has risen above acceptable limits; caused by loads too great for the Inverter to operate continuously, or by lack of ventilation to the Inverter.
AC over-load condition: The Inverter has turned off because the connected loads are larger than the Inverter / Chargers output capacity, or the output wires are shorted.
Internal fault
No output power.
Inverter LED is
ON
Low output or surge power.
Inverter LED is
ON
Low charging rate when connected to AC Utility
Power
Unit is in search mode, which means load is too small for search mode circuit detection
Loose or corroded battery cables
Low batteries
Loose AC output connections
Battery cables are the wrong length or gauge
Charge rate set too low
Low AC voltage (< 90 VAC)
Recommended Solution
Turn the Inverter ON
Check all connections for a break in the circuit:
Fuses, Circuit breakers, Cable terminals. The
Batteries need charging.
This condition usually only occurs when an additional charging source (solar panels) is used to charge the batteries. Remove or disconnect the additional charging source, so the voltage of the battery bank can drop.
Reduce the AC loads (appliances) that are operating.
Check ventilation around the Inverter, ensure all ventilation openings are clear and un-obstructed
To clear this fault, an Inverter reset is required.
Remove DC power to the Inverter, or press and hold down the ON / OFF switch for 15 seconds.
Turn on a load greater than 5 watts to bring Inverter
/ Charger to full output power, or turn off search function with the GP-IC-2000 remote
Clean and tighten all cables
Recharge or replace batteries
Tighten AC output connections
Verify recommended cable lengths and gauges from the manual. Replace cables as necessary
Adjust charge rate or Shore settings on remote
Check AC input wiring
Reduce the load, increase the generator’s RPMs
Low charging rate when connected generator
Generator output is too low to power both load and charger
Charger does not charge
Loose or corroded battery cables
Defective batteries
Wrong charger settings
Wrong AC input voltage
Adjust charge rate or Shore settings on remote
Clean and tighten battery cables
Replace batteries
Adjust the charger settings
Verify proper AC input voltage gpelectric.com | [page 47]
