This kit provides the necessary hardware to install direct wiring for in-
put connection, output connection or both. Carefully read these in-
structions in their entirety before continuing.
WARNING!
Only qualified service personnel or electricians may
perform the following procedure. The electrical ter-
minals exposed in the following procedures will be
energized if the UPS is on or plugged in. Make sure
the UPS is both unplugged and off.
CAUTION!
When the input and/or output panels are replaced with this kit, the
standard circuit breakers are eliminated. Properly rated overcurrent
protection must be supplied at the source to protect both the wiring,
the UPS, and the loads attached to it. Where an individual load has a
lower rating for its source overcurrent protection, additional properly
rated overcurrent protection must be supplied for the load(s).
