4 Site Preparation Checklist
Grounding
The UPS MUST be correctly grounded for proper operation.
Older facilities may have inadequate electrical grounding. Inspection must be performed
by a qualied electrician before installation to ensure that grounding meets the local
electrical code.
Branch Circuit Breaker Protection
To provide branch circuit protection, the utility line attached to the UPS’s input
MUST be protected by a circuit breaker certied for this use as per the local
electrical code.
The breaker’s minimum size is calculated by the following formula:
Minimum Breaker Size= UPS’s maximum input current / 0.8
The UPS’s maximum input current is read off of the UPS’s nameplate. For example, if
the nameplate gives the maximum input current as 20A, the circuit breaker should be
rated at least 25A..
Disconnects
The input and output lines to and from the UPS MUST have disconnect devices
attached.
Site Requirements
Install the UPS and batteries on a surface that supports a minimum weight of 45.0 lbs
(20.4 kg). The input wiring must reach a suitably grounded power outlet and the load wiring
must reach the UPS’s output terminal block.

5 Mounting the UPS
5.1 Wall Mounting
The UPS can be mounted to a wall or to wall
studs. The wall or studs should be able to hold

must be plumb and the case mounted so it is
level.
Using the case as a template, secure the case
to the wall with the 4 Phillips-head wood screws
