The above table (Table 4-1) is based on 75°C (167°F) rated conductors and 40°C (104°F) ambient tempera-
tures.
Refer to National Electrical Code (1999) Tables 310-16 corrected to 40°C (104°F).

For 115, 208, and 230-volt lines, use 250-volt disconnect switch.
For 440-480, 575-volt lines, use 600-volt disconnect switch.

Line Voltage Changeover
Instructions
1. Determine if the charger is connected for available
line voltage. A label located near AC input terminals
is marked with the AC voltage for which the charger
is factory connected.
2. If charger is not connected correctly, check serial
nameplate to determine that charger is equipped
to be connected for available line voltage. If
charger is suitably equipped, make voltage change-
over connections by following instructions on AC
INPUT label inside charger.
3. If charger is reconnected, check input fuse (s)
ratings with ratings specified on label and replace
if necessary.
CAUTION: INCORRECT CONNECTIONS
AND INCORRECT FUSE SIZE can damage

instructions carefully.

Line Connections to Battery Charger

Follow local code requirements if different than
instructions in this manual.
1. Turn charger OFF.
2. Be sure charger is connected correctly for available
line voltage as instructed above.
3. On charger nameplate, note the AC input amperes
corresponding to the line voltage to which charger
is to be connected. Use that ampere value to select
the proper disconnect switch, fuse, and power cable
sizes from Table 4-1.
