9.6.1 Installation Procedure
CAUTION
ELECTRIC SHOCK AND FIRE HAZARD:
• Take precautions to avoid bridging the terminals.
• Do not contact the terminals with metal mountings, fixtures, or body parts.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in minor to moderate injury.
Install equipment following the standards set by the local authority having
jurisdiction.
1. If the circuit in which the battery module is installed has a disconnect, open the
disconnect to isolate the battery module.
2. Set both the battery module BMS and the Breaker to the OFF position.
3. Use a DMM or other voltage measuring device to confirm the circuit is de-
energized.
4. Ensure the cable connections are clean and in working order.
5. Install and secure the new battery module.
6. Connect the battery cable-end lugs to the DC bus.
• Connect only the positive (+) cable lug to the positive (+) busbar.
• Connect the negative (-) cable lug to the negative busbar (-) last to avoid sparks.
• Short circuits may damage the battery module, voiding the warranty.
7. Connect cable connectors to the battery module receiving pins and engage
mating locks.
• First, connect only the positive (+) connector to the positive (+) receiving pin.
• Connect the negative (-) connector to the negative (-) receiving pin last to avoid
sparks.
Refer to Section 9.5, Terminal Connections and Hardware.
8. If using the LYNK Gateway, connect the battery modules.
• Attach a CAT5 cable to the LYNK port on the battery module.
• Attach the other end of the cable to the LYNK Gateway.
Refer to Section 9.8.2, Network Installation, for instructions.
9. Set the battery module Breaker ON.
10. Set the battery module BMS ON.
11. Close the disconnect if it is open.
NOTICE
• Avoid short circuits. Short circuits may damage the battery module and will void the
warranty.
• Failure to engage the mating lock on a terminal connection will increase resistance
and lower voltage, leading to burnout of the terminals and voiding of the warranty.
