2.5.3 Transformer-Free UPS—Dual Inverter Frames
A junction box is factory-installed on all models of the Liebert APS to ease cable connection.
Select the appropriate input cables according to Tables 9 and 10 based on the UPS rating and mains
frequency. Emerson recommends sizing the overcurrent protection and wiring for the frame rating for
easing upgrades to the UPS system.
To connect the cable:
1. Remove the knockouts at the junction box (see Figure 31) and pull the cables through them,
leaving some slack for installation.
Figure 39 Knockouts
2. Connect the cables to the corresponding terminal of the power input and output terminals.
3. Tighten the screws to 4.52Nm (40 in-lb) with a 13mm (1/2 in) torque wrench.
