The above table (Table 4-1) is based on 75°C (167°F) rated conductors and 40°C (104°F) ambient tempera-
tures. 
Refer to National Electrical Code (1999) Tables 310-16 corrected to 40°C (104°F). 
 
*           For 115, 208, and 230-volt lines, use 250-volt disconnect switch. 
 For 440-480, 575-volt lines, use 600-volt disconnect switch. 
 
* *        Two conductors and ground conductor required for single phase. 
 Three conductors and ground conductor required for three phase.

Line Voltage Changeover  
Instructions 
 
1.  Determine if the charger is connected for available 
 line voltage.  A label located near AC input terminals 
 is marked with the AC voltage for which the charger 
 is factory connected. 
 
2.  If charger is not connected correctly, check serial 
 nameplate to determine that charger is equipped 
 to be connected for available line voltage.  If  
 charger is suitably equipped, make voltage change- 
 over connections by following instructions on AC 
 INPUT label inside charger. 
 
3.  If charger is reconnected, check input fuse (s)  
 ratings with ratings specified on label and replace 
 if necessary.     
 
 
 
 CAUTION:  INCORRECT CONNECTIONS 
 AND INCORRECT FUSE SIZE can damage 
 this equipment.  Follow voltage changeover 
 instructions carefully. 
 
Line Connections to Battery Charger 
 
Follow local code requirements if different than  
instructions in this manual. 
 
1.  Turn charger OFF. 
 
2.  Be sure charger is connected correctly for available 
 line voltage as instructed above. 
 
3.  On charger nameplate, note the AC input amperes 
 corresponding to the line voltage to which charger 
 is to be connected.  Use that ampere value to select 
 the proper disconnect switch, fuse, and power cable 
 sizes from Table 4-1.
