Open the front doors on the cabinet and check for any noticeable problems or damage that may 
have occurred during shipment. 

1.

 

Review the attached system drawing/schematic located inside the cabinet doors to find the 
location of the jumper that has been left off in the middle of the battery string for added safety 
during installation and shipping. This jumper will be installed later. 

2.

 

Check  and  re-torque  all  internal  battery  connections,  as  shipping  may  have  caused  these 
connections to come loose. Proper torque values are noted on the system schematic/drawing 
and can also be found on most battery cases. 

3.

 

Refer to the Charger Operation Installation and Operation Manual for instructions for making 
AC power connections to the charger. The AC input cables can ingress the cabinet from either 
the top panel or the bottom panel by removing the appropriate panel knockout plate. The AC 
input cables should be run in the wire ducts located on the left-side of the cabinet from the 
cabinet ingress point to the connection point on the charger. 

4.

 

Without LVD Option: 

Verify that the battery string output and the charger DC output are 

connected  to  the  breakers  on  the  panelboard  specified  in  the  system  schematic/drawing. 
Assure that these two breakers are in the off/open position before making any DC connections 
from the panelboard breakers to their respective loads. 

With LVD Option: 

Referencing Figure 2/ Section 9, verify that the battery string output and 

the charger DC output are connected as shown to the LVD circuit and the LVD circuit is 
terminated to the proper breaker in the DC Load Center.  

5.

 

Review the supplied cabinet schematic/drawing for information on the size and location of 
the DC distribution breakers on the panelboard. Route the DC output cables from the breakers 
through the wire duct located on the right-side of the cabinet to the cabinet egress point on 
the  top  of  the  cabinet  (after  removing  the  knockout  plate)  and  connect  to  their  respective 
loads.  All  cables  should  be  sized  per  NEC  and  any  other  local  codes  pertaining  to  this 
equipment.  

6.

 

Connect  the  jumper  that  was  left  off  during  shipment  and  install  as  shown  on  the  system 
schematic. Torque connections properly.
