# Kent G3 Installation — Order of Work and Box Contents

> Order of work, full box contents checklist, two-person handling requirements, and the wiring sequence overview before the G3 detail pages.

This page is your hub for a Kent G3 installation. Work through the order of work first, confirm the box contents match your order, then follow the linked pages for each wiring stage.

<Warning>
  **For trained and authorized installers only.** Complete the Safety First and Isolation & Shutdown procedures before any work begins.
</Warning>

## Order of Work

<Steps>
  <Step title="Confirm the site">
    Verify the site against [Choosing the Location](/environment/choosing-the-location) and the G3 limits: altitude ≤ 4000 m, adequate clearances, and correct airflow path.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Mount the unit">
    Follow [Kent G3 Mounting](/g3/mounting) — wall load-bearing, clearances, and the ±5° verticality rule.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Earth it">
    Complete [Kent G3 Earthing](/g3/earthing) before any PV, battery, or AC wiring.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Wire in order">
    [PV wiring](/g3/pv-wiring) → [Battery wiring](/g3/battery-wiring) → [AC wiring](/g3/ac-wiring) → [CT & Meter](/g3/ct-and-meter) → [Comms & Parallel](/g3/comms-and-parallel) → [GEN & Smart Port](/g3/gen-and-smart-port) if used.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Commission and check">
    Run [Kent G3 Commissioning](/g3/commissioning), then complete the G3 Commissioning Checklist.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  **Which metering kit you have matters.** The CT scheme ships a 100 A/50 mA CT set. The meter scheme ships the three-phase meter plus 120 A/40 mA CTs. More than three units in parallel requires a separate 300 A/5 A kit. Check the kit against the order before leaving the warehouse — ratios and wiring details are on [CT & Meter](/g3/ct-and-meter). \[KNB-VAL-08]
</Note>

## Handling

Two people are required to lift and hang this unit. Use the carton cutouts and the heat-sink handles. Lower the unit slowly onto the mounting bracket — the G3 weighs up to 42 kg.

## Wiring Overview

Conductor sizes and OCPD ratings are determined by local electrical standards on top of the platform figures given on each wiring page. The backup loads panel must **not** be electrically connected to the main service panel at any point — not even temporarily during testing.

## Common Mistakes

* Leaving the warehouse with the wrong metering kit for the order type — only verifiable at the site.
* One-person lift on a 42 kg wall unit.
* Tying the backup subpanel to the main panel "temporarily" and never removing the bridge.
