  • Page 17 X100 SERIES INSTALLATION & OPERATING MANUAL One by one, turn each output circuit breaker to the ON position and/or insert a GMT fuse and measure the DC voltage across the corresponding output terminals. The voltage should again read approximately 54.4, 27.2, or 13.6 volts. After each output is measured, turn OFF that circuit breaker and/or remove the GMT fuse and turn ON and/or insert a fuse in the next one.
  • Page 18 X100 SERIES INSTALLATION & OPERATING MANUAL With AC input unplugged, remove the three rectifier modules from the system chassis. Make sure all load circuit breakers are in the OFF position and/or all GMT fuses removed. Set the battery circuit breaker to the OFF position. Carefully connect the battery cables to the battery terminals shown in Figure 4 while observing the correct polarity as described in section 8.4.
  • Page 19 X100 SERIES INSTALLATION & OPERATING MANUAL IMPORTANT NOTES: It is not possible to start the system by connecting the batteries alone. During the 30 seconds initialization period the system bus voltage will be at the factory preset level of the rectifiers; nominally 54.4V, 27.2V or 13.6V depending on system voltage.
