Wiring Considerations 19

8.1

Power and Control Wiring

1. Power wiring must be run in individual, separate conduit or cable tray. Control wiring must

be stranded and run in individual separate steel conduit.

2. Observe local, state and national electrical codes. Verify utility power and its overcurrent

protection rating will accommodate the UPS input rating, including battery recharging.

3. A safety ground wire must be run from building ground to ground point in the UPS Module

Cabinet and Battery Cabinet. The grounding conductor shall comply with the following

conditions of installation:
a. An insulated grounding conductor that is green with or without one or more yellow stripes

is to be installed as part of the branch circuit that supplies the unit or system. The

grounding conductor should be sized in accordance with NEC and local codes.

b. The grounding conductor described above is to be grounded to earth at the service

equipment or, if supplied by a separately derived system, at the supply transformer or

motor-generator set.

c. The attachment-plug receptacles in the vicinity of the unit or system are all to be of a

grounding type, and the grounding conductors serving these receptacles are to be

connected to earth ground at the service equipment.

4. When possible, input to the UPS and bypass should be four wire plus ground. When input is

straight delta, the UPS artificial neutral kit should be ordered. When input is corner-

grounded delta, the isolated neutral kit should be ordered.

5. Observe clockwise phase rotation of all power wiring. Phase A leads Phase B leads Phase C. A

qualified electrician should check the phase rotation.

6. NEC Class 1 wiring methods are required for control and communication Class 2 circuits.

8.2

Battery Wiring

Power wiring to the Battery Cabinet connects positive, negative, and ground power cables from

the Battery Cabinet to the associated UPS. Connection of the UPS to the Battery Cabinet serves

to both charge and discharge the batteries (when needed). The battery disconnect (circuit breaker)

requires a control cable. Power and control cables are field supplied. Refer to Figure 11 through

Figure 13.

Call Liebert Global Services to schedule installation check-out, final battery intercell connections,

and start-up.

!

CAUTION
Power and control wiring must be separated!

!

WARNING
A BATTERY INTERCELL CONNECTION ON EACH TIER IS

DISCONNECTED FOR SAFETY DURING SHIPMENT. DO NOT

COMPLETE THESE CONNECTIONS. THE LIEBERT CUSTOMER

SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WILL COMPLETE THESE

CONNECTIONS AS PART OF START-UP. AN IMPROPERLY

INSTALLED UNIT CAN RESULT IN INJURY TO PERSONNEL OR

DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.

!

CAUTION
Be sure polarity is correct when wiring the Battery Cabinet to the

connected equipment (positive to positive; negative to negative).

If polarity is not correct, fuse failures or equipment damage can

result.

NOTE
Inspection of the battery installation is a service that can be provided by

Liebert. A Battery Specialist can perform a detailed inspection of the entire

battery system to ensure it meets current IEEE standards. This inspection

service is recommended because batteries are a very critical part of the UPS

system.
