Don't forget to install a inline fuse (or breaker) rated for the line size. If the starter dead shorted you could easily ruin the inverter otherwise. If it will be hard wired, I would also include a cutoff switch for removal or maintenance.
I am installing a 2000w inverter in my 5th wheel, and using 3/0 wire and 200amp inline fuse. A 2/0 wire would handle the load, but a 2000w inverter could draw nearly 200amps. A LOT more in surge mode.
Good advice. Thanks. :thumbsup:
