PLANNING THE JOB

The main objective in planning the job is to determine the hardware required to
install the MS-Series Power Source. Proper consideration of the items below will
allow the installation to proceed in an orderly manner.
The first step in planning the job is to determine the size of power source
required to service the load. In normal situations the load should not exceed
80% of the power source's full load ratings. This margin allows the user to add
future loads to the Power Source without sacrificing surge and overload
capabilities.
