Revision B
The UPS unit has the following power connections:
Three-phase (L1, L2, L3), Neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) connection for the rectifier
input (Note: N is only an open tie point)
Single-phase (L1), Neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) connection for the bypass input (N
is common for rectifier and bypass inputs)
Single-phase (L1), Neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) connection for the load output
Plus (+), minus (-) and protective earth (PE) connection for the external batteries
input (Note: N is only an open tie point)
Single-phase (L1), Neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) connection for the bypass input (N
is common for rectifier and bypass inputs)
Single-phase (L1), Neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) connection for the load output
Plus (+), minus (-) and protective earth (PE) connection for the external batteries
Note!
The rectifier requires a Neutral to operate. It’s connected internally from the bypass
terminal to the rectifier, see wiring diagram.
Note!
Care needs to be taken to ensure that the input supply neutral reference is not
disconnected whilst the UPS is in service.
Power cables and protective fuses
Always use copper cable types to fit terminals with approx. 1. Nm torque for different load
currents. The Cu cable sizing is based on multi-core cables laid in conduits/trunkings on the
wall or on the floor (installation procedure C), ambient temperature 2°C, PVC insulation,
surface temperature up to 70°C. Cables of several UPS can be installed in parallel to each other.

Standards SFS 6000--2 (2002) and IEC 60364--2 (2001-08) “Electrical installations of
buildings” with normal 1.7 x Neutral conductor rating for IT loads are used as a sizing guide.
For any other conditions, size the cables according to the local safety regulations regarding
installation environment, appropriate voltage and currents of the UPS.

Fuses are sized according to local safety regulations, appropriate input voltage and the rated
current of the UPS. Therefore, protect the input and bypass cables with gG (gL) fuses or B-C-D
type of circuit breakers against overload and short-circuit.
