Section 4: Installation Setup

The installation of the EP1100 UPS into an enclosure may be accomplished by connecting input and output
wiring to the appropriate connectors of the power supply. All connections on the front panel of the power
supply use bare copper wiring or mate with industry-standard connectors widely used. Moreover, connec-
tors used in this power supply mate with accessory harnesses and assemblies designed and manufactured
by Multilink Inc. Refer to the OPTIONS section of these instructions for further information.
In all installations, the following conditions apply and must be observed:
• A service disconnect switch containing over-current protection devices such as circuit breakers
or fuses with appropriate AIC (amperes – interrupting capacity) rating should be placed be-
tween the AC utility source and the service entrance device for the power supply. Where used,
the disconnect switch must be installed in compliance with all national, state and local codes as
required. Please reference ANSI/NFPA 70 for compliance.
• For outdoor installations, the AC utility conductors connected to the power supply service en-
trance device shall be physically protected through an appropriate restraining device and con-
duit, consistent with local codes and practices.
• Permission to mount the power supply enclosure at any site shall be made in accordance with all
legal requirements and local practices of the area.
This power supply is designed for use in both existing and new ground-mount enclosures. Observe the
following procedures during installation of any EP1100 UPS.

Preparation

The EP1100 Line Interactive power supplies have been factory assembled, tested, and prepared as a com-
plete product ready for installation within an enclosure. The installer must verify that the correct type of AC
power receptacle is installed in the enclosure for the input service and power supply selected for use at any
given site. Additionally, the battery strings installed in the enclosure must match the EP1100 battery rating.
Power supply ratings may be verified from the nameplate on the power supply.
4.02

Grounding

Safety ground and earth ground connections must be in place for the power supply and enclosure for both
personal safety and operational considerations. During power supply and/or enclosure installation, the
following grounding connections must be provided or verified.
Failure to provide and connect adequate safety and earth grounds at each installation site may result in im-
proper power supply operation or permanent damage to the power supply itself. Grounding facilities and
connections must conform to appropriate national codes and/or local practices.
