Generator On), unscrew and remove the top rear cover of the
cabinet and locate the terminal block (see Figure 31).
C A U T I O N
EPO circuits are not isolated from line voltage, and wiring must be installed according to
local codes using conduit or suitable primary supply cables.
The Generator On signal is isolated from line voltage and can be
treated as NEC Class 2 wiring.
Use 14–20 AWG, 600V wire (UL) or 14–26 AWG, 300V wire (CSA)
for all input control signals.

9. Place the signal wires through the proper conduit or grommet
above the terminal block and attach to appropriate terminals.
Secure each connection by torquing terminal screws to a maximum
0.4 Nm (3.5 lb in). Provide strain relief for cables by installing plastic
cable ties.
NOTE Do not strain relieve EPO wiring with the same cable tie used for Generator On
wires.
10. Remove the jumper between terminals 5 and 6 only if you are
wiring from an EPO switch. (See “Changing Parameter Settings”
on page 83 for information about accessing menu 4 3 2 to view or
change the EPO switch type.)
11. When all connections have been made and checked, reinstall the
UPS cabinet rear covers using the original screws.
