Caution. If the two UPSs are placed side by side, connect as indicated above. In the other configurations, always make sure
that the cables between the UPSs and Bypass AC source have the same cross-section and the same length. The same is
that the cables between the UPSs and Bypass AC source have the same cross-section and the same length. The same is
true for the cables between the UPSs and the load.
