1.Non-Hardwired Panels

1.Plug SBP UPS output cord into UPS PDU panel.*

2.Plug UPS input cord to SBP UPS input receptacle.*

3.Plug customer equipment into SBP PDU panel.

4.Plug SBP into utility power outlet.

*Units with IEC receptacles: Use jumper cables.

2. Hardwired Panels

Attention: Wiring must be performed by a qualified electrician.

1.Switch input circuit breaker off.

2.SBP units that will be rack-mounted: Set SBP in the rack.

3.Unscrew and remove top access panel.

4.If using SBP5000RMI2U or SBP6KRMT2U with a hardwired UPS: Unscrew existing terminal block wiring. Do not touch factory wiring (see E).

5.If using SBP5000RMI2U or SBP6KRMT2U with a hardwired UPS: Unscrew and remove rear input/output panel.

6.Remove circular knockouts from hardwiring input/output panel (see A, B, C, D: UO= UPS Output; UI= UPS Input; AI= AC Input; LD= Load).

SBP3000 units: Also, remove PDU output panel knockout plate.

SBP16KP units: Also, remove circular knockouts from PDU output panel.

7.Connect wires to terminal blocks (see E, F, G, H, I). Adhere to all national and local electrical codes.

8.Reinstall access panel.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Use the chart below to solve minor SBP installation problems. Also, refer to the UPS User Manual Troubleshooting section. For more complex issues, refer to www.apc.com.

 

Problem and

Solution

 

 

Possible Cause

 

 

 

UPS WILL NOT TURN ON AFTER ON BUTTON IS PUSHED

 

 

 

 

 

 

SBP handle is in ‘Bypass’ position.

Rotate the SBP handle to the ‘Normal’ position.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is no power at UPS input.

Check that the power cables from the SBP to the utility power, and

 

 

 

from the SBP to the UPS Input are securely connected.

 

 

 

 

 

 

UPS is faulty or damaged.

Rotate the SBP handle into the ‘Test’ position. If the connected

 

 

equipment becomes energized, the UPS may be faulty. To confirm

 

 

this, refer to UPS User Manual Troubleshooting.

 

 

 

 

There is no power at the utility

Rotate the SBP handle into the ‘Test’ position. If the connected

 

 

power outlet.

equipment fails to become energized, the utility power outlet may be

 

 

 

faulty. Check the utility power supply by plugging a table lamp into

 

 

 

the suspect outlet. If the utility outlet fails to power the lamp, contact

 

 

 

qualified service personnel to restore power.

 

 

 

 

 

 

UPS IS ONLINE; NOT POWERING ALL CONNECTED EQUIPMENT

 

 

 

 

 

 

SBP output circuit breaker tripped.

Reduce the load by unplugging equipment. Reset the breaker.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is no power at SBP output.

Check that the power cable from the SBP to the UPS output is

 

 

securely connected.
