Follow below diagram to connect UPS output to Input of transformer box.
240V Input
208V Input
- Confirm the UPS output voltage through the front panel and verify that it matches the transformer box output voltage.
- For example, if the input to UPS is 208V, then voltage selection should be 208V.
- Confirm the UPS output voltage through the front panel and verify that it matches the transformer box output voltage.
- For example, if the input to UPS is 208V, then voltage selection should be 208V.
There are 3 different output configurations on transformer box
The follow figure shows the transformer box block diagram. The I/O terminal
block is hardwired. Before making hardwire, please be sure the power is
completely off.
- Switch off utility power at the distribution point where the transformer box will be connected. Be absolutely sure there is no power.
- Verify that the output circuit breaker is in the OFF position.
Three output configurations and the wiring is listed as below:
- Option 1: Connect L1 and N to get 120V output
- Option 2: Connect L2 and N to get 120V output
- Option 3: Connect L1 and L2 to get 240V output
output of L1 or L2 can only be half-loaded
Wiring diagram to connect UPS, transformer box and maintenance bypass
Start-Up
Step 1: Ensure the Mains of the bypass module is connected to the mains, and
then switch on the input breaker of the maintenance bypass switch module, the
bypass module will supply power to the UPS.
Step 2: After the LCD and the LINE indicators of the UPS are lighted on,
switch on the input breaker of the transformer box. Then, whole system is
turned on completely.
