Does the PD9245 need to be inlined fused/breakered between the converter and battery?

I think the short answer is no. the unit has internal current limiting and fuses that are listed as "reverse polarity protection". I would recommend you download and read the .pdf manual at http://www.progressivedyn.com/pdfs/109821F%20english.pdfHappy Trails!

I put mine in a camper and I believe it did have an in-line fuse. It certainly can't hurt and adds another layer of protection for you.

I installed a switch between my power source and the socket to eliminate any current draw........ no problem !

You have three prongs. Use only two. One is for +pos & One is for -neg. to the battery. Install your fuse between switch and battery. Hope this helps.

It doesn't require an inline fuse. It is very low wattage. Sorry I couldn't help.

No, it needs the stripped wires. You can get pair of wires that have MC4 on one side to connect to panel and bare wire on the other to connect to the charge controller. Better to do this than cutting off the MC4 connectors.

no breakers or fuses come with this item. I got this unit just for the DC converter. that was all that I needed to repair my unit. I could buy the whole unit for same price as just the dc converter, easy to change out. THX Mark

I don't believe you will need to do anything . Just make certain the neutral is disconnected from the power company by means of a positive discinnect to avoid back feed . I purchased the transfer switch , tie in receptical etc from Amazon when I got the generator. Lowes sells the same generator for about $100 bucks more. The transfer switch and load enter was by Reliance.

Wire it to a toggle switch, or put a inline fuse on it and remove the fuse when not in use

no, it needs to be wired directly to the battery with a 30 amp inline fuse added.

You don't need any fuses for the panels. Even if shorted it's not a problem. You likely shouldn't use a fuse on battery either cause it draws a lot of current depending on its use. Most things are protected now as long as you don't short across you battery.

If you are burning through fuses, there is a chance you have the settings incorrect or what you are using to convert is asking for too much power.

The Switch Requires Alternating Current (A/C) There Is A Good Chance The Dc Would Damage The Switch

I have a 1600 watt inverter connected, also with an inline fuse. It all works fine, my only concern is the cables get quite warm, but it has been connected for about a year now just fine. Makesure you use an inline fuse with proper watt fuse.

Being a grid tie inverter has nothing to do with the ability to wire it to a "fuse panel" but this inverter does not have a terminal block so you'd need to use plugs which isn't ideal. It's worth noting that this inverter has a 30 amp output, but individual outlets are rated at 15 amps. If you want to wire it to a breaker panel using plugs, you should use two sets of wires to the inverter.

NO! That would draw too much power and fry this thing and likely start a fire as it is no properly fused. Get a power inverter that ties directly into the battery instead.

No, you will need an external switch to do that. Also you need to make sure it bypasses your charging system, so that you are not trying to charge your batteries from the inverter.

I powered all min off my boat battery with a 5amp inline fuse and switch they workGreat
