To turn off the PSS GP800 Power Series UPS backup batteries that are hot, making noise, and emitting a smell, follow these steps:
1. Turn Off the UPS: Use the switch to power off the UPS according to the shutdown procedure. 2. Disconnect from Utility Power: If the utility power is connected, turn it off and disconnect the UPS input terminal from the power source. 3. Allow Cooling: Do not touch the batteries immediately. Let them cool down in a well-ventilated area. 4. Check for Damage: If the batteries are visibly damaged or leaking, avoid direct contact and handle them safely. 5. Seek Professional Assistance: If the issue persists or there is a strong smell, contact a qualified technician for inspection and replacement.
Ensure the UPS is in a safe environment away from flammable materials.

(3) Ground (G): Connect correctly to ground in the switchboard. 7. If the difference between the neutral and the ground is more than 2V or it cannot meet the requirements, please reinstall good grounding to ensure safety of UPS operation. 8.
14. For 3Ø 4-wire connections, please respectively measure the voltage between R/N,S/N, T/N with a meter and see if they are close to 220V, then connect L cable of the UPS to cable whose voltage measured highest (meaning supply power of this phase is lighter than that of the other two phase), the N cable of UPS is connected to utility...
