HIPULSE U UPS Single Module And “1+N” (Expandable) 160/200/300/400kVA User Manual
Chapter 3 Electrical Installation
This chapter introduces the electrical installation of the HIPULSE U UPS, including the procedures or methods for
power cabling and control cabling, and the distance from floor to connection point.
power cabling and control cabling, and the distance from floor to connection point.
The UPS requires both power cabling and control cabling once it has been mechanically installed. All control cables,
whether screened or not, should be run separate from the power cables in metal conduits or metal ducts which are
electrically bonded to the metalwork of the cabinets to which they are connected.

Warning
BEFORE CABLING UP THE UPS, ENSURE THAT YOU ARE AWARE OF THE LOCATION AND OPERATION OF THE
EXTERNAL ISOLATORS THAT CONNECT THE UPS INPUT/BYPASS SUPPLY TO THE MAINS DISTRIBUTION PANEL.
CHECK THAT THESE SUPPLIES ARE ELECTRICALLY ISOLATED, AND POST ANY NECESSARY Warning SIGNS TO
PREVENT THEIR INADVERTENT OPERATION.

For cable entry, refer to 2.3.5 Cable Entry.
3.1.1 System Configuration
The power cables of the system must be size with respect to the following description:
Module input cables
The input cables must be sized for the maximum input current, including the maximum battery recharge current,
given in the Table 3-1, with respect to the module rating and the input AC voltage.
given in the Table 3-1, with respect to the module rating and the input AC voltage.
Module bypass and output cables
The bypass and output cables must be sized for the nominal output current, given in the Table 3-1, with respect to the
module rating and the output AC voltage.
module rating and the output AC voltage.
Battery cables
Each UPS module has its own battery which is connected using two cables, one positive and one negative. The
battery cables must be sized for the battery discharge current at the end-of-discharge voltage, as given in Table 3-1
with respect to the module rating.
battery cables must be sized for the battery discharge current at the end-of-discharge voltage, as given in Table 3-1
with respect to the module rating.
3.1.2 Cable Rating
The power cables can be sized to suit the UPS module rating according to Table 3-1.
