NOTE
Specific countries require a derating factor for the wire size when running multiple conductors
in the same power cord. It is recommended to use only power cord conductors sized for this
derating factor.
Disconnect Devices
Disconnect devices or circuit breakers must be used to protect the system against abnormal hazards.
Table 1-2 details the circuit breaker specifications.
WARNING
Provide a disconnect device to protect against abnormal hazards.
Systems configured with a full complement of cells, memory, and I/O and connected
to a 5-wire source must have a maximum 24A 3-phase with neutral (4-pole) circuit
breaker installed as part of the building installation.
Systems configured with a full complement of cells, memory, and I/O and connected
to a 4-wire source must have a maximum 44A 3-phase (3-pole) circuit breaker
installed as part of the building installation.
