UPS input and output overcurrent protection are provided on the back panel of the UPS. You must provide some means for disconnecting input AC within sight of the UPS. Best Power strongly recommends including a means of bypassing the UPS from the critical load for maintenance.

Make all connections exactly as shown on Figure 7 and 8 to make sure the phasing is correct. Good ground connections are necessary to reduce electrical noise and make UPS and load operation safe. Follow the grounding guidelines on the Installation Wiring Diagram. IMPORTANT: If your unit has an optional bypass switch, follow the instructions that came with the bypass switch to install it with the UPS.

The voltages written in the first column should be similar to the voltages in the second column. (They may be slightly different.) If voltages are more than a few volts apart, check the terminal strip connections and correct any wiring problems. If you need help, call Best Power's Worldwide Service or your local Best Power office.

305 External Battery Installation CAUTION UPS units contain hazardous AC and DC voltages. A qualified service person must install the UPS, AC mains supply and output cabling service, and external batteries according to local and national codes and must be familiar with batteries and the required precautions. The nominal battery voltage for the UPS is 240 VDC.

Figure 11 UPS; call the nearest Best Power office for more information. 4. At the UPS, the conductor box has knockouts/plugs for AC input, AC output, and DC cables. The knockout for DC should already have been removed during AC installation. Route the battery cables and the ground wire through this opening.
5. At the UPS, connect the ground wire to the ground (earth) terminal near the DC terminals as shown in Figure 12. Connect the positive (+) cable to the + UPS DC terminal, and the negative (-) cable to the - UPS DC terminal. 6.
400 Startup The UPS can be started once the AC wiring has been installed (as well as any optional battery cabinets or switches). Make sure you adjust the voltage selection switch (Section 306) if necessary before starting the UPS. CAUTION To avoid possible equipment damage or personal injury, assume that the UPS terminals have AC voltage present whenever AC input voltage or DC battery voltage is applied.
500 Interpreting the Front Panel LEDs 501 Line and Load Level LEDs During normal operation, the UPS rectifies the AC input and uses it to charge the batteries and feed the inverter. The Line (~) LED shown below is on. In this mode, the five front panel LEDs shown in the drawing show the percentage of the rated UPS power that your equipment is using.
Important: Silencing the alarm does not solve the problem that caused it. If you need to contact Best Power because of the alarm, make sure that you have your unit’s model number and serial number available when you call.

Using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), system administrators can easily monitor and manage remote UPS units that protect key network devices like servers, routers, and hubs. Best Power’s SNMP Adapter’s provide a self-contained link between the UPS and an Ethernet or Token Ring LAN/WAN. The adapters allow the system administrator to communicate with the UPS even after the protected device goes down.
