2. Installation

Parallel UPS with external bypass cabinet and separate Normal and Bypass AC network inputs (6 UPS in parallel for 4PN)

The UPS installation may be equipped with earth-leakage protection upstream on the condition that the protection apply to:

-the normal and Bypass AC inputs

-all the parallel-connected UPSs.

The standard diagrams presented below may be adapted to your needs by qualified personnel.

The requirements for the different system earthing arrangements (SEA) are similar to those for single UPS configurations. In the diagrams on page 18, simply replace the single UPS units between points A, B and C by the following parallel configuration.
