See figure 3 showing two parallel-connect-
ed (redundant) UPS units.

When increased power is required (two to
four parallel units), an external bypass
must be added (see figure 4).

isolation and protection
devices

(See figure 1 on previous page):

Q1 (Molded circuit breaker NA):

isolation of the rectifier/charger (A) from

the normal AC source (1);

rectifier/charger (A) start-up;

QF1 (circuit breaker):

battery (D) protection and isolation;

Q5N (switch):

isolation of the UPS (B) from the load;

Q4S (switch):

isolation of the static bypass (C) from

the bypass AC source (2);

Q3BP (switch):

bypass switch for maintenance;

FUE (fuses):

protection of the rectifier/charger (A)

from the normal AC source;

FUS (fuses):

protection of the inverter (B) from the

load.

Note:

switch Q3BP is lock on open position on

parallel UPS systems constituted to
increase available power.

external bypass for parallel
UPSs and the hot-swap
option

See figure 4.

Q5N: isolation of the inverters of all the

parallel UPS systems from the load;

Q3BP: bypass for maintenance.
