DANGER! LETHAL HIGH VOLTAGE HAZARD!
All wiring should be performed by a qualifi ed electrician, in accordance with the warnings in this manual and all applicable
2
electrical and safety codes. Incorrect wiring may damage the UPS system severely and cause serious personal injury and
property damage. Read
7-1 Wiring Warnings
3
•
De-energize all input and output power sources of the UPS system before installing cables or making electrical connections.
•
Use flexible cable of sufficient length to permit UPS system servicing. The maximum cable length is 10 m (32.8 ft).
•
Use ferrule caps to cover termination cables and prevent frayed ends from shorting on the UPS system terminal block.
4
•
Use cabling rated VW-1, FT-1 or better.
•
Use cable sleeves and connector clamps.
•
The neutral conductor must be the same size as the current conductors.
5
•
Tighten all connections with a torque of at least 3.95 N·m (35 in·lb)
•
Confirm that all cables are marked correctly according to their purpose, polarity, phase and diameter.
•
If the UPS system's input/output power source is wye-wye, then "Neutral" and "Ground" must not be connected.
•
If the input power source has VNG>0, install an isolation transformer before the UPS system and input power source, then connect the UPS
6
system's "Neutral" and "Ground" together.
•
For equipment requiring a neutral connection to an IT power distribution system, the disconnect device must be a four-pole device and must
disconnect all line conductors and the neutral conductor. If a disconnect device interrupts the neutral conductor, it must simultaneously interrupt
all line conductors.
7
•
Allow the batteries to charge uninterrupted for 24 hours after the initial wiring connection.
•
Observe proper polarity by connecting negative to negative and positive to positive. Failure to observe proper polarity will damage the UPS
system and create a serious risk of personal injury and property damage.
•
Observe proper phase by connecting R to R, S to S, T to T and N to N. Failure to observe proper phase will damage the UPS system and create a
8
risk of personal injury and property damage.
7-2 Wiring Preparation
•
De-energize all input and output (AC and DC) of the UPS system and external battery cabinet (if present).
9
•
Mark all cables according to their correct purpose, polarity, phase and diameter.
•
Review the diagrams in
Section 7-3
•
Consult the table in
Section 7-5

Note: If the UPS system's input/output power source is wye-wye, then "Neutral" and "Ground" must not be connected. If the input power source
has VNG>0, install an isolation transformer before the UPS system and input power source, then connect the UPS system's "Neutral" and
"Ground" together.
