4. INSTALLATION
As this is a device with class I protection against electric shocks, it is essential to install a
protective earth conductor (connect earth ( )). Connect the conductor to the terminal (X5),
before connecting the power supply to the UPS input.
All connections in the device, including those for control (interface, remote control, ...), will be
performed with the switches at rest and without any mains present (UPS power line cut off «Off»).
It must never be forgotten that the UPS is a generator of electrical power, So users must take all
necessary precautions against direct or indirect contact.
Warning labels should be placed on all primary power switches installed in places away from the
device to alert the electrical maintenance personnel of the presence of a UPS in the circuit. The label
will bear the following or an equivalent text:
