UPS INSTALLATION PLAN AND UNPACKING
3.2.2UPS System Power Wiring Preparation
Read and understand the following notes while planning and performing the installation:
SRefer to national and local electrical codes for acceptable external wiring practices.
STo allow for future kVA upgrades, consider installing a derated UPS using wiring and external overcurrent protection breakers sized for a fully rated UPS.
SFor external wiring, use 90°C copper or aluminum wire. Wire sizes listed in Table
SWire ampacities are chosen from Table 310−16 of the NEC. Specification is for copper wire with a 90°C rating.
SMaterial and labor for external wiring requirements are to be provided by designated personnel.
SIf installing a maintenance bypass, a minimum of two separate feeds with upstream feeder breakers, or a single feed with two upstream feeder breakers, must be provided: one for the UPS or rectifier input breaker (RIB) (if installed) and one for the maintenance bypass input. DO NOT use a single feed or a single feeder breaker to supply both the UPS or RIB and the maintenance bypass. If a bypass input breaker (BIB) is installed in the maintenance bypass and a single−feed UPS is being installed, a single feed to the maintenance bypass is acceptable for supplying both the UPS and the bypass.
SThe bypass feed into this equipment uses three or four wires. The rectifier feed into this equipment uses three wires. The phases must be symmetrical about ground (from a Wye source) for proper equipment operation.
SIf the load requires a neutral, a bypass source neutral must be provided. If the load does not require a neutral and there is no neutral conductor connected at the bypass input, a neutral to ground bonding jumper must be installed. DO NOT install both a source neutral and a bonding jumper. See Table
SThe ISBM and UPM sections are shipped with debris shields covering the ventilation grills on top of the sections. Do not remove the debris shields until installation is complete. However, remove the shields before operating the UPS. Once the debris shields are removed, do not place objects on the ventilation grills.
SIn a common battery system, single and multiple UPMs are powered from one common battery source. In a separate battery system, multiple UPMs are each powered from separate battery sources.
SOn an UPS configured for separate rectifier inputs, all sources that feed the separate rectifier inputs must be derived from a common ground point.
SOn an UPS configured as an Input Output Module (IOM), bypass input wiring, termination, conduit, and bypass breaker requirements are not applicable.
SA Field Installed UPM (FI−UPM) is always designated as UPM 4.
