If your battery cabinet has a DC switch on the front, the
positive and negative cables connect to the terminal strip in
the back of the battery cabinet. First, find the positive (
+)
cable, and strip 0.5
2
(1.3 cm) of insulation from the end.
Insert the cable into the positive (
+) battery cabinet
terminal. Next, strip 0.5
2
(1.3 cm) of insulation from the
end of the negative (
) cable, and connect that cable to the
negative (
) terminal in the battery cabinet. Tighten both
terminal connections securely.
If your battery cabinet does NOT have a DC switch, see your
battery installation diagram. Connect the positive (
+) cable
to the DC fuse, and connect the negative (
) battery cable to
the most negative terminal on your batteries.
NOTE If you have an external DC disconnect switch, see the instructions that came
with your disconnect switch.

+) and negative ()
cables that come from the UPS and strip 0.5
2

insulation from the end of each cable. Insert the positive (
+)
cable into the positive (
+) terminal at the back of the battery
cabinet. Next, connect the negative (
