3.2 Connecting to the Extended Battery Cabinet 

To be performed by authorized service personnel: 

 
1. 

Inspect battery trays for signs of damage. Verify that all terminal connections are sound.  
The red and black “powerpole” connectors will be  connected, but the blue and white 
connectors on the wires joining the trays in the string should not be connected.   
 

2. 

If possible,  after connecting the loose “powerpole” connections (blue to blue, white to 
white),  use a voltmeter to verify that the  battery string is above 408 VDC at the TB3 
connector.    If the voltage is low or the voltage varies significantly from string to string, 
please consult Dual-Lite service.

3. 

The battery cabinet(s) to be installed must include the at least one –B version.  The first 
–B cabinet must have its input terminal block (TB1) wired directly to the UPS.  To wire 
additional battery cabinets, wire from  TB2 of the first battery cabinet to TB1 of the 
second  –B battery cabinet.  Repeat these steps for additional –B cabinets.  Use wire 
sized per local codes, #6 AWG 75° C copper wire minimum to #2/0 AWG maximum. 

 

When a –N version cabinet is installed with a –B cabinet, the –B cabinet must have its 
TB1 terminal block wired to the UPS or another –B cabinet.  To wire from the –B cabinet 
to the –N cabinet, wire  from TB3 of the –B cabinet to TB1 of the –N cabinet.  To wire 
additional –N battery cabinets, wire from TB2 of the first –n battery cabinet to TB1 of the 
second –N battery cabinet.  Repeat these steps for additional   -N cabinets. 
 
There must be at least one  –B cabinet among the battery cabinets.  If it is desired to 
create a battery system involving all –N version cabinets and a user provided disconnect 
switch, contact Dual-Lite for requirements for the disconnect switch.   
 

 

DANGER

 

 

TB3 is energized  at all times.  Opening the circuit breakers does not remove 
power from this terminal block. 

 

 

4. 

Connect the ground wire to the ¼-20 ground stud with a ring terminal or pressure lug by 
removing and replacing the top nut and washers only with a 7/16” wrench.
