UPS Module Rating Connection Type
65 & 80 kVA Rectifier input is top entry, to lugs in the top of the input circuit breaker. Lugs
will accommodate cabling up to 350MCM. DC link and critical bus output
connections are top entry, to frame-mounted terminal blocks with one 3/8-
16x1 stud per phase or polarity. All units have two access plates in the top
grille assembly. A bottom-entry access plate is also standard, to enable the
installer to pull AC cables through the module to the connections on top.
100-225 kVA
For “SpaceSaver” modules in the 48” frame, rectifier input wiring is
top-entry, directly to lugs on top of their respective circuit breakers.
DC link and critical bus output connection are top entry, to frame-
mounted lugs.
Standard modules with top-and-bottom entry have access plates and
a wireway on the right side of the modules. All power connections are
to bus bars in the wireway
.
Use 75°C copper wire. Select wire size based on the ampacities in Table 310-16 (see Table 3 of this
manual) and associated notes of the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70).
Use commercially available solderless lugs for the wire size required for your application. Connect wire to
the lug using tool and procedure specified by the lug manufacturer.
