2. Connect devices to the outlets.
On 230V units, install a retention clip for each outlet; Pull the prongs out slightly and insert them into holes
on the sides, then insert the device’s power cord and snap the clip over the cord.
NOTE:

MGE UPS SYSTEMS recommends even distribution of attached devices across the all available outlets to
avoid exceeding the outlet, quad or octet ratings limitations. See Power Ratings in Technical
Specifications for more information.
