1. Installation
Recommended maximum downstream protection
Battery protection
Pn = rated power at a power factor of 0.9, for other values please consult the after-sales support or the local office.
See the necessary precautions during connection of circuit breakers / switch-disconnectors in the installation
manual of the battery circuit-breaker enclosure, doc. no. 34021529.
Recommended residual-current protection
If these recommendations are not followed, a short-circuit on an output circuit can result in a break in power longer than 20
milliseconds on all the other output circuits.

Depending on the installation, the CB/SD may be replaced by a CB/SD with a higher breaking capacity.
These protective devices ensure discrimination for each circuit downstream of the UPS, with or without a bypass AC input.

Requirements for residual-current protection.
For common normal and bypass AC inputs
- The same residual-current protection may be used for the two lines.
For separate normal and bypass AC inputs
- A transformer is required upstream of either the normal AC line or the bypass AC line.
- Equip each line with a circuit breaker or switch-disconnector with residual current protection.
See “System earthing arrangements”, page 24.
The recommended minimum residual current protection is 3A, provided the conditions defined in IEC364.4-41 are
respected.
