Electrical Safety
This manual contains important safety instructions that should be followed during
the installation and maintenance of the UPS system.
DANGER
• Electrical equipment must be installed, operated, serviced, and maintained
only by qualified personnel.
• Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe
electrical work practices.
• Disconnection devices for AC and DC must be provided by others, be readily
accessible, and the function of the disconnect device marked for its function.
• Turn off all power supplying the UPS system before working on or inside the
equipment.
• Before working on the UPS system, check for hazardous voltage between all
terminals including the protective earth.
• The UPS contains an internal energy source. Hazardous voltage can be
present even when disconnected from the mains supply. Before installing or
servicing the UPS system, ensure that the units are OFF and that mains and
batteries are disconnected. Wait five minutes before opening the UPS to
allow the capacitors to discharge.
• The UPS must be properly earthed/grounded and due to a high leakage
current, the earthing/grounding conductor must be connected first.
The label below must be added if:

1. The UPS input is connected through external isolators that, when opened,
isolate the neutral, OR
2. The UPS input is connected via an IT power system.
The label must be placed adjacent to all upstream power disconnection devices
that isolate the neutral.
The label below must be also added if backfeed protection is provided external to
the equipment. See Backfeed Protection, page 83 for more details. The label must
be placed adjacent to all upstream power disconnection devices.

• Servicing of batteries must only be performed or supervised by qualified
personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep
unqualified personnel away from batteries.
• Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery
terminals.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they can explode.
• Do not open, alter, or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to
the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.
DANGER
Batteries can present a risk of electric shock and high short-circuit current. The
following precautions must be observed when working on batteries
• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• Wear protective glasses, gloves and boots.
• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
• Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery
terminals.
• Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded,
remove source from ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can
result in electric shock. The likelihood of such shock can be reduced if such
grounds are removed during installation and maintenance (applicable to
equipment and remote battery supplies not having a grounded supply
circuit).
DANGER
When replacing batteries, always replace with the same type and number of
batteries or battery packs.

automatic isolation device (Schneider Electric backfeed protection option or
other device, such as a breaker, switch, or contactor with trip function, meeting
the requirements of IEC62040-1 or UL1778 5th edition – depending on which
standard apply to your local area), is required to be installed to prevent
hazardous voltage or energy at the input terminals of the isolation device. The
device must be rated and controlled according to the specifications in this
manual.
When the UPS input is connected through external isolators that, when opened,
isolate the neutral or when the automatic backfeed isolation is provided external to
the equipment or is connected to an IT power distribution system, a label must be
fitted at the UPS input terminals, and on all primary power isolators installed
remotely from the UPS area and on external access points between such isolators
and the UPS, by the user, displaying the following text (or equivalent in a language
which is acceptable in the country in which the UPS system is installed):
