Emerson GXT3 230V Distribution Box Electrical Connections, HardwireTerminal Block Connections

Installation and Configuration

5.3.1Distribution Box Electrical Connections

Electrical connections are made through a removable power distribution box that attaches to the rear of the UPS.

The installer must provide an upstream branch circuit breaker. The input circuit breaker on the distribution box and the output circuit breaker on the rear of the power distribution box disconnect all power between the main cabinet and the distribution box.

Models equipped with a manual bypass breaker pass bypass power directly to the bypass breaker from the input terminal block. The input circuit breaker on the distribution box does not disconnect power from the manual bypass breaker.

The installer must provide circuit breaker protection according to local codes. The mains disconnect should be within sight of the UPS or have appropriate an appropriate lock-out. Maintain service space around the UPS or use flexible conduit.

The installer must provide output distribution panels, circuit breaker protection or emergency disconnects according to local codes. Output circuits must not share a common conduit with any other wiring.
