WARNING! Batteries and facility power systems present electrical voltage and amperage 
levels that are considered an electrical hazard. Make sure that only qualified personnel are 
allowed to install, operate, maintain, or otherwise come in contact with this equipment. 
Remove all watches and jewelry before installing battery disconnect kits. Only use insu-

Procedure steps:

1. Disconnect power to the battery rack. Set all circuit breakers to OFF.

2. Install a circuit-breaker mounting bracket (item 5) and insulating pad (item 6) on the right-

two 10-32 keps nuts.

3. Remove one 1/4-20 nut and flatwasher from each stud on the back of the circuit breaker. 

4. Disconnect the hot collector bus cable from the hot battery terminal. Reconnect the cable to 

the lower (load) terminal on the circuit breaker and secure with one 1/4-20 nut and flatwasher.

breaker and secure with one 1/4-20 nut and flatwasher.

6. Connect the short cable to the hot battery terminal.

7. Install the circuit breaker (item 1) into the mounting bracket face plate (item 4) with two 6-32 

pan-head screws.

8. Torque all battery connections as specified by the battery manufacturer’s 

current specifications.

9. Install the mounting bracket face plate onto the mounting bracket with two 6-32 pan-head 

screws.
