The Power Bus Bar for parallel systems, mounted in the rear of an HP rack, provides the required input and
output connections for the paralleled UPSs and has a single system-rated input connection. The parallel UPS
system can be installed with Output Power Modules or connected to rack-mounted power distribution
systems.
Note these guidelines when configuring the UPS standalone unit or parallel system:
•
There is a maximum of four ERMs per UPS.
•
Mount ERM(s) for a standalone UPS directly below the UPS or, with rack side panels removed, in an
adjacent rack to the left of the rack containing the UPS.
•
Mount ERMs for a parallel system in an adjacent rack to the left of the rack containing the UPSs (rack
side panels removed).
•
For consistent runtimes, each UPS in a parallel system should have the same number of ERMs.
•
Some load equipment may require phase rotation or phase relationship coordination to ensure proper
operation. Review your equipment manufacturer’s power requirement documents to ensure that your
connected equipment operates correctly.
