Cross Tie Output Circuit Breaker
Overview
The optional cross tie output circuit breaker allows two separate UPSs that are fed from two different
power sources (dual-fed) to be tied together to create a 2N system. The illustration below shows an
example configuration.

PDU APDU B
To UPSTo UPS
With a dual-fed 2N system, the secondary of UPS A’s input transformer, located within PDU A, is
connected to the bypass feed of UPS B; and the secondary of UPS B’s input transformer, located
within PDU B, is connected to the bypass feed of UPS A.
The purpose of a 2N system is to use two UPSs such that if something were to happen to one of the
UPSs, the other UPS is available to supply power to the load equipment. 2N systems provide an
added benefit for 480V and 600V power distribution systems in that isolation transformers are not
required to step down the 480V or 600V input to 208V because transformers in the PDUs perform
this task.
It is important to note that the cross tie feature is to be used on 2N dual-fed systems only. The cross
tie circuit breaker is not to be used to supply power to any other load device. Cross tie connections are
made through the load-side terminals of a molded-case circuit breaker, located in the front, upper,
right-hand side of the PDU. PDUs with the bottom feed option are supplied with terminals on the
front, lower, right-hand side of the PDU.

Emergency Power Off (EPO)
Overview
To provide a mechanism for emergency power off, attach a remote switch (not included) to the EPO
interface on the PDU monitoring unit. The EPO interface () is connected to the PDU Main Input
switch () and to the UPS internal EPO switch (). (Control wires from the PDU to the UPS are
connected during installation of the InfraStruXure system.)
Switch
When the EPO is activated, the main input circuit breaker to the PDU transformer is opened, the UPS
DC Disconnect breaker is opened, and the UPS System Enable switch is turned off. In this sequence,
there is not power from the PDU transformer and there is no power from the UPS inverters and
batteries.
APC offers an optional InfraStruXure EPO System (EPW9). Contact your APC sales
representative, or visit the APC Web site (www.apc.com) for more information.

Installation Procedures
Level the PDU, UPS, RDP, NetShelter and
Battery Enclosures
Leveling feet are attached under the enclosure at each corner. The leveling feet can help provide a
stable base if the selected floor space is uneven, but they are not intended to compensate for a badly
sloped surface. To level the enclosure:
1. Fit the 14-millimeter end of the open-ended wrench (provided) to the hex head just above the
round pad on the bottom of the leveling foot. Turn the wrench clockwise to extend the leveling
foot until it makes firm contact with the floor.
2. Repeat step 1 for each of the remaining leveling feet.
3. Use a level to determine which feet need further adjustment to level the enclosure. Adjust as
necessary.
InfraStruXure System—Installation and Start-Up19
Exchange Side Panels
Before installing the InfraStruXure PDU, Symmetra PX UPS, and Battery Enclosure, you will need
to exchange side panels so that the adjacent panels will have matching holes for joining the
enclosures together and for routing input and output wiring between them. The following side panels
will need to be exchanged:
• Adjacent side panels of a PDU and UPS
• Adjacent side panels of a Battery Enclosure and a UPS
• Adjacent side panels of two Battery Enclosures
To exchange side panels:
1. Detach the ground wires from the side panels that you will be exchanging.
