1.3.6 Control Wiring Connections
Liebert
®
power conditioning systems have provisions for external shutdown control from Remote
Emergency Power Off (REPO) stations. Figure 12 is a simplified diagram of the shutdown circuitry
of the Liebert FPC
.
Low-Voltage Control Circuit
Control wiring connections must comply with the NEC and all other applicable codes.
As shown in Figure 12, the control circuit operates on 24VDC. The shutdown device (represented by
the REPO switch) activates a low-current, 24VDC relay that in turn operates the shunt-trip
mechanism. The shunt-trip solenoid opens the Main Input Breaker, which de-energizes the power
center.
Multiple-Unit Shutdown
When more than one power center is installed by the user, a typical requirement is that actuation of a
single device (REPO for example) must shut down all power centers. The low-voltage control circuits
of all standard Liebert FPC systems are designed to meet this requirement.
External Control Wiring Connections
External control wiring connections for remote shutdown, alarm, and/or monitoring are made to the
low-voltage junction box (if used) or to the adapter board terminal strip located inside the unit.
Control wiring connections vary with the type of monitoring system furnished with the unit. Typical
control wiring configurations are shown in Figures 12 through 15.

WARNING
Risk of electric shock and arc flash. Can cause injury and death.
Verify that all incoming high-voltage (power) and low-voltage (control) circuits are
de-energized and locked out before installing cables or making connections, whether in the
junction box or in the unit.
