All Vanner Produced Inverters GFCI Notification
ECO 4701
- Effected Product Lines
IT Series
IQ Series
Bravo Series
LifeStar Series
This is a notification that Vanner has converted to the BYBON GFCI receptacles (Vanner part # 07115) effective immediately to meet the new requirements of UL943.
UL now requires all GFCI receptacles to automatically self-test. All receptacles manufactured after June 29, 2015 will be required to meet the new specification of UL943. To stay in compliance with UL we have qualified, and UL has approved, the BYBON GFCI in the Vanner produced inverters.
Vanner had previously qualified Hubbell GFRST15 GFCI to comply with the UL mandated change. Based on testing and the field performance, Vanner no longer recommends the Hubbell GFCI for use with Vanner inverters.
- Acceptable Bybon GFCI Part Numbers:
BYB-E15
BYB-E20
BYB-ETR-15
BYB-ETR-20
Please see the attached A919412-A ADDENDUM OWNERS MANUAL GFCI UL (pdf) for operational changes.
