The Go Power! AIC-3000-12-DL combines a 3000 watt pure sine wave inverter, a 150 amp multi-stage battery charger and a built-in 50 amp dual-leg automatic transfer switch in one low-profile chassis. On shore or generator power it passes both AC legs through to your panel and charges your 12 volt house batteries from L1. When that power drops, it switches to battery power in under 20 milliseconds and supplies 120 volts to both legs.
It's built for RVs, boats and work trucks with 50 amp service and a 12 volt battery bank. It's UL listed to UL 458, meets CSA 107.1, ABYC A31 and ABYC E11, and joins the Go Power! PowerTrak system over RV-C.
The AC input accepts a split-phase (120/240 volt) or dual-input single-phase source, with transfer contacts rated at 50 amps. When the inverter is on and both legs have shore power, both pass through, so 240 volts is available across L1 and L2 from a split-phase source. If only L1 has power, it charges the batteries and shares L1 with the L2 output. Two four-pole terminal blocks (L1, L2, N, G) take the input and output wiring.
On battery power the inverter delivers 3000 watts continuously with total harmonic distortion under 3%, and it supplies 120 volts on both L1 and L2, so the whole panel stays live. It handles 6000 watts for 200 milliseconds, 4800 watts for 5 seconds and 3300 watts for 5 minutes. Output is 120 volts at 60 Hz by default, and the PowerTrak Display can change it to 100, 110 or 115 volts or 50 Hz.
The power factor corrected charger runs bulk, absorption, float and equalize stages with flooded, gel, AGM, LiFePO4 and custom profiles. LiFePO4 charges at 14.4 volts and floats at 14.0 volts, and custom absorption and float settings run from 13 to 16 volts. Maximum charge current adjusts from 5 to 150 amps. The included battery temperature sensor corrects lead-acid charge voltages by -25 mV per °C; lithium banks don't need it.
The shore breaker setting runs from 10 to 50 amps and caps the current the unit pulls from your source. Power sharing, on by default, lets the inverter add battery power when your loads need more than that limit allows. No-load draw is under 25 watts, standby is under 15 watts and hibernation mode is under 2 watts, all at 12.5 volts.
The RV-C port connects the AIC to the PowerTrak Display (GP-PT-DIS-3, sold separately), Go Power! Advanced Lithium Batteries and Dometic MPPT 30 and 40 amp solar controllers. The display is where you change settings and watch DC voltage and current, AC input and output, temperatures and fault codes. The included power disconnect harness lets the battery power the RV-C network, as Go Power recommends.
Built-in protection covers AC over and under voltage, over-current, over and under frequency, output overload, short circuit, DC over and under voltage and over-temperature. The low battery cut-off is 10.5 volts by default and adjusts from 10.0 to 12.5 volts. A status LED shows green for AC output, blue for charging and red for a fault.
50 amp RVs. Keep both halves of the AC panel powered at a 50 amp pedestal and on battery power, with one unit between the shore source and the panel.
Boats with 50 amp service. The AIC meets ABYC A31 and E11, and the manual explains how to bond the AC and DC grounds to one common boat ground.
Lithium systems. Pair it with a large 12 volt LiFePO4 bank and recharge at up to 150 amps from shore or generator power.
Both deliver 3000 watts, a 6000 watt surge and a 150 amp charger, and both carry a 3-year warranty. The single-leg AIC-3000-12-SL has a 30 amp transfer switch for single-phase, 30 amp service and uses 10 AWG AC wiring. The AIC-3000-12-DL has a 50 amp dual-leg switch and uses 6 AWG AC wiring.
A separate inverter, converter and transfer switch means three units to mount, wire and set up. The AIC does all three jobs with one set of settings. Go Power says to remove or disable an existing converter, because two chargers on one bank work against each other.
L1 is the primary leg: it powers the unit and the charger, and L2 doesn't charge the batteries. If shore power reaches only L2, both outputs run from the inverter and the batteries don't charge. On battery power both legs carry the same 120 volts, so there's no 240 volts between them. The on/off switch controls only the L1 output, and L2 passes through whenever it has shore power. The shore breaker setting ships at 30 amps, so use the PowerTrak Display to raise it for 50 amp service.
Connect only a 12 volt bank. Go Power estimates about 280 amps of draw at full inverter load and suggests 400Ah or more of lithium. Use 4/0 AWG copper DC cables up to 10 feet each with a 400 amp Class T fuse or breaker, and the manual names the GP-DC-KIT5 install kit. AC wiring is 6 AWG on 50 amp breakers. The unit isn't reverse polarity protected and has no output breakers. Mount it horizontally or on a wall with the terminals to the side, never vertically, with 6 inches of clearance around the vents, in a dry compartment.
A 50 amp RV has two 120 volt legs, L1 and L2. This model passes both legs through on shore power and feeds both from the inverter on battery power. If your coach has a 30 amp, single-leg cord, the AIC-3000-12-SL is the matching model.
Only on shore power from a split-phase source, when 240 volts is passed through across L1 and L2. On battery power both legs carry 120 volts with no voltage difference between them.
The AIC runs on factory defaults without it, but Go Power calls the display the remote required for changing settings. Defaults are an AGM profile, a 120 amp charge current and a 30 amp shore breaker setting, so you'll need it to select LiFePO4, use the full 150 amps or set 50 amps.
Go Power covers the AIC-3000-12-DL with a 3-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
The Go Power! 3000 Watt Dual-Leg Advanced Inverter Charger keeps both legs of a 50 amp panel powered, with 3000 watts of pure sine power, a 150 amp charger and PowerTrak control over RV-C. If you'd like help planning the AC wiring, cables or fusing for your install, the Outbound Power team is happy to help.
