number for any configuration is given in the following pages. These CONFIGURATION cables are 

unique to “F” option paralleling and cannot be used with “R” option UPS units.

Configuration-specific  OUTPUT  and/or  INPUT  power  cables  are  also  required.  These  power 

cables can be assembled by the user following the wiring diagrams shown below, or they can be 

ordered from SynQor using the proper part number given in the pages that follow.

In a standard parallel system, the AC OUTPUT will remain “OFF” until all UPS units are enabled. 

Each unit must be enabled by actuating the front panel switch “ON”, or by sending the appropriate 

signal over the USER I/O cable. If any UPS unit is “OFF”, all of the UPS units will disable their 

outputs. If any UPS unit cannot deliver output power because it cannot draw power from its AC 

INPUT, its DC INPUT or its BATTERY, or due to an internal fault, then all of the UPS units in the 

system will disable their outputs.

Expanded Paralleling “R” Option

The extended paralleling “R” option adds an electronic breaker to the AC OUTPUT of the UPS 

to provide fault-tolerant, glitch-free parallel operation. Should one unit experience a fault that 

could otherwise cause the AC OUTPUT to collapse, the breaker disconnects the failed unit from 

the AC bus. This configuration allows the remaining units to continue delivering power, provided 

that the remaining units can support the load power requirement. This allows users to create 

N+1 or N+M redundant systems. 

Additionally, the “R” option increases the total number of units in a multi-unit system to 32. 

These units can be arranged to form Single-Phase, Split Phase, and 3-Phase systems. Systems 

with multiple phases will be N+1 or N+M redundant on each phase. 

A failed unit can be removed and replaced while the remaining system unit AC outputs are active. 

Special consideration must be taken when connecting the outputs to avoid electric shock. It is strongly 

recommended that the system AC OUTPUT be disabled before a unit is removed or replaced. 

CONFIGURATION  cables  for  two,  three,  four  and  five  unit  Single-Phase  systems  are  offered 

as standard products. See the following pages for details. These cables are unique to the “R” 

paralleling option, and cannot be used with “F” paralleling option units. Contact the SynQor 

factory for Single Phase systems larger than five UPS units.

Systems created using expanded parallel UPS units will be fault-tolerant to the following events:

 Complete loss of a unit’s INPUT power (AC INPUT, DC INPUT or BATTERY)
• Hardware failure of the AC INPUT stage
• Hardware failure of the AC OUTPUT stage
