Wiring Considerations

8.3

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. Liebert Battery Cabinets include power and control cables to join multiple

cabinets together into a system. Additional (field-supplied) power or control wiring might be neces-

sary to connect the battery cabinet system to the UPS. Refer to

Figure 18

DANGER

A BATTERY INTERCELL CONNECTION ON EACH TIER OF THE

LIEBERT BATTERY CABINET IS DISCONNECTED FOR SAFETY

DURING SHIPMENT. DO NOT COMPLETE THESE

CONNECTIONS. THE LIEBERT GLOBAL SERVICES

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.

!

CAUTION

DC power cables should be installed in conduit with conductors in

matched pairs (positive and negative).

NOTE

A Liebert 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.
