8.3Battery Wiring
Power wiring to the Battery Cabinet connects positive, negative, and ground power cables from the Battery Cabinet to the associated UPS. Connection of the UPS to the Battery Cabinet serves to both charge and discharge the batteries (when needed). The battery disconnect (circuit breaker) requires a control cable. Liebert Battery Cabinets include power and control cables to join multi- ple cabinets together into a system. Additional
