Hardwiring should be performed by a qualified electrician. Use appropriate size wires.

1.The UPS features a transient voltage surge-suppression (TVSS) screw located on the front panel. The TVSS screw is used for connecting the ground lead on surge suppression devices such as telephone and network line protectors.

Prior to connecting the grounding cable, ensure that the UPS is NOT connected to utility or battery power.

2.Hardwire the UPS.

–In 230 V applications the UPS must be protected with a circuit breaker that complies with European standards for branch rated protection per the country of installation.
