Recommended phase-conductor sizes [AWG] for
a 86°F (30°C) temperature environment
Recommended current protection
To ensure the correct functionality of the PDU and to avoid unintentional
tripping of the bypass input protection device follow the following
recommendation:
Use the SUVTOPT114 (20 kVA version) or the SUVT115 (30 kVA
version) as input protection.
Output protection is included in the PDU of the unit.
Note: Using a solution solely based on breakers, selectivity for load short
circuit currents higher than 2 kA cannot be assured for the 3-phased
output. If this is required, use fuses to protect the bypass.

If fuses are preferred, the following can be used:
Ensure that the short-circuit current on the UPS input is less than 14 kAiC
sym RMS. Also take into consideration the below breaker settings to
ensure correct functionality during overload operation.

Checklist
• Do not apply electricity to the UPS.
• Do not connect batteries in the UPS.
• If an XR Battery Enclosure is installed make sure that the DC breaker
(if available) is in the OFF position and that both 125A fuses are
removed from the XR Battery Enclosure.
• Check that the power wiring is torqued to 62 lbf
.
in/7 Nm.
• Verify clockwise phase-rotation (L1, L2, L3) and make sure a neutral
connection is present.
• If the installation includes an XR Battery Enclosure, remount the
125A fuses in the XR Battery Enclosure and check that the DC
breaker (if available) on the XR Battery Enclosure is in the ON
position.
• Leave a wiring diagram on site for service personnel.
• Close the rear door.
• For any optional equipment, refer to product-specific manuals.
