will not harm personnel. Insert the EBM cable into the UPS battery connector quickly and
firmly.
To install the EBM(s) for a UPS:
1. Verify that all battery circuit breakers are in the OFF (O) position
(see Figure 9).
2. Plug the EBM cable(s) into the battery connector(s) as shown in
Figure 9. Up to four EBMs may be connected to the UPS.
