the battery cabinet must be in "OFF" position, prior to connecting the batteries.
Note
Batteries of different models and make can not be used together.
2. Confirm that the batteries quantity conforms the UPS' specification, voltage of each
group of batteries should be 240 Vdc nominal or around 250 Vdc measured with a volt
meter.
3. Use a voltage meter to confirm that the voltage across the battery terminals on the
UPS Input/output terminals' block is zero, before connecting the battery cable to the
UPS.
4. According to the wire connection shown in Figure 2-10, connect the positive
pole( red ) and negative pole( black ) to the "+" and "-" battery terminals on terminals'
block respectively and secure the terminals, pay attention not to reverse the batteries
connection . For 15/20kVA UPS, it is necessary to use Ferrite T-core in the
