UPS 225 - 275 kVA

User’s and Installation Guide

The line-to-line unbalanced output capability of the UPS is limited only by the full load per
phase current values for AC output to critical load shown in Table 2-4. The recommended line-to-
line load unbalance is 50% or less.

Source protection for the AC input to bypass should be treated as if supplying a 275 kVA three-
phase transformer, to allow for inrush current. Bypass input wiring and bypass input breaker
rating should be treated as if supplying a 275 kVA load, regardless of the rating of the UPS.

Bypass and output overcurrent protection and bypass and output disconnect switches are to
be provided by the user. Table 2-8 lists the recommended rating for bypass and output circuit
breakers satisfying the criteria for both.

There is no DC disconnect device within the UPS. A battery disconnect switch is recommended,
and may be required by local codes when batteries are remotely located. The battery disconnect
switch should be installed between the battery and the UPS.

External DC input overcurrent protection and disconnect switch for the remote battery location
is to be provided by the user. Table 2-9 lists the maximum rating for continuous-duty rated
circuit breakers satisfying the criteria for both.

Table 2-9. Recommended DC input circuit breaker ratings

Battery voltage is computed at 2 volts per cell. Rated battery current is computed at 2 volts per
cell. The battery wiring used between the battery and the UPS should not allow a voltage drop
of more than 1% of nominal DC voltage at rated battery current. If the conductors used for DC
input from the battery cabinets to the UPS are those provided by the UPS manufacturer, and the
UPS and battery cabinets are manufactured by the same supplier, then it is acceptable if they
do not meet the noted minimum conductor sizes.

2.2.3 UPS system interface wiring preparation

Control wiring for features and options should be connected at the customer interface terminal
blocks located inside the UPS.

WARNING

Do not directly connect relay contacts to the mains related circuits. Reinforced insulation to
the mains is required.
