The circuit breakers recommended above respect the requirements for discrimination with the UPS fuses

Stick a label with the following text on each upstream circuit breaker:
"Isolate Uninterrptible Power Supply (UPS) before working on this circuit".

Curve N for the downstream circuit breaker

may be replaced by curve H or L, depending

on the installation.
The indicated protection ensures

discrimination for each output circuit

downstream of the UPS, whether supplied by
via the normal or the Bypass AC source. If

these recommendations are not followed, a

short-circuit on an output circuit can result in
a break in power longer than 20 milliseconds

on all the other output circuits.
