UPS

shutdown the inverter (see the "shutdown of a module" section);

carry out operations in the following order:

the UPS is powered down (except the Mains cables upstream from switches Q1, Q4S and Q3BP) and the load is supplied by Mains 2. All the lights on the control panel are off. A full powering down requires load shutdown and the opening of the upstream protection devices on Mains 1 and 2.

Modular UPS with external maintenance bypass

shutdown each UPS (see section "shutdown of a unit");

transfer to the maintenance bypass in the order indicated below (the load is supplied directly by Mains 2 via bypass switch Q3BP):

in the maintenance bypass cubicle, close switch Q3BP, then open switch Q5N;

open output switch Q5N for each UPS;

cut the Mains 2 supply to each UPS by opening the upstream protection devices;

open battery circuit breaker QF1 on each UPS;

open input switch Q1 on each UPS;

the UPSs are de-energised once the capacitors have discharged.
