G8000 Series Installation and Operation Manual (380 V)
11.3 External Breakers
The G8000 UPS units are not equipped with circuit breakers. Qualied personnel should provide the
external breakers for the AC input/output, bypass input and DC input.
See Figure 11.1 – External Wiring Diagram, for the circuit position of the breakers.
Table 11.4 shows the G8000 UPS minimum external breaker rating for each capacity. The bypass input and
the AC output require 3-pole breakers.
TABLE 11.4 EXTERNAL BREAKER RATING
Capacity
Minimum Breaker Rating
AC Input Bypass Input / AC Output DC Input
120 kVA 380 V – 300 A 380 V – 225 A 500 VDC – 700 A
180 kVA 380 V – 400 A 380 A – 350 A 500 VDC – 1000 A
11.4 Grounding Wire
WARNING
Be sure to ground the UPS as specied.
Using the UPS without a proper ground will deteriorate the insulation,
cause leakage of currents and electric shock.The resistance to ground
should be less than or equal to 10 ohms.
The 120/180 kVA earth grounding bus is located inside, at the bottom-front of the unit.
Use a AWG 2 (or 38 mm
2
) or larger cable for the grounding wire. Run the grounding wire through the
opening at the bottom, or through a hole in the top knockout plate. See Figure 11.6. Connect either the top
or bottom earth ground bus, but not both, to the grounding wire.
The ground wire must have a crimp terminal with a 1/2 in. (12 mm) diameter bolt hole. The ground bus has
33/64 in. (13 mm) bolt hole. The connect the crimp terminal and ground bus together using a 7/16 in. (10
mm) diameter bolt.
