Introduction

The Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant online power protection system is utilized to prevent loss of valuable electronic information, minimize equipment downtime, and/or minimize the adverse effect on equipment production due to unexpected power problems.
The Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant System continually monitors incoming electrical power and removes the surges, spikes, sags, and other irregularities that are inherent in commercial utility power. Working with your building’s electrical system, the Parallel Capacity/Redundant System supplies clean, consistent power that your sensitive electronic equipment requires for reliable operation. And during brownouts, blackouts, and other power interruptions, optional battery racks provide emergency power to safeguard your operation.
The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system, using the Powerware
t
PowerHandlerPlus
eight UPMs to operate in parallel to provide more capacity than a single UPM and as backup for each other. The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system can supply up to 4000 Amps, depending on the SSBM used. In addition, when one UPM is taken out of service for maintenance or is not operating properly, the redundant UPM continues to supply uninterrupted power to the critical load. The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system refers to the SSBM in conjunction with the UPMs. The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system consists of a Switchboard System Bypass Module with optional System Maintenance Bypass (SMB), two or more UPMs, and battery racks or cabinets. Each UPM may have its own battery rack, or may share the same battery rack with the other UPMs. The SSBM has temporary load bank tabs to allow full load testing of the UPMs and the SSBM.
Your UPMs functions automatically and requires very little attention during normal operation. However, you should read and understand the procedures described in this manual to ensure trouble-free operation. In particular, you should be thoroughly familiar with the Emergency UPM Off procedure described in Chapter 7 of this manual and Emergency Load Off procedure described in the Powerware 9315 UPS Operation manual provided with the UPM.
This manual describes how to install and operate your Powerware Parallel Capacity/Redundant system. The installation section contains instructions for installing the Powerware PowerHandlerPlus Module (SSBM). The operation section contains instructions for operating the SSBM and UPMs while paralleling for capacity/redundancy. The information you use depends on the system you purchased.
Switchboard System Bypass Module (SSBM), allows two to

Switchboard System Bypass
NOTE: The installation procedures of this manual only refer to the SSBM and its
connection to the UPS modules for parallel capacity/redundancy operation. The operation section of this manual refers to the operation for the SSBM and the UPMs when paralleling for capacity/redundancy. For full installation and operation of the UPMs, refer to the Powerware9315 UPS Installation and Powerware9315 UPS Operation manuals provided with the UPMs.
Each component of your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system is housed in a free-standing cabinet. The UPM cabinets line up and match in style and color, and have safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection. Figure 1 shows a typical Parallel Capacity/Redundant System.

Getting Started
1.1 Installing the UPS
The Switchboard System Bypass Module (SSBM) and UPMs of the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system are shipped on separate pallets. Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the packaged cabinets to the installation site, or as close as possible to the site, before unloading from the pallet.
This is the basic sequence of the installation steps:
1. Create an installation plan for the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system
(Chapter 1).
2. Prepare your site for the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system (Chapter 1).
3. Inspect, unpack, and unload the SSBM (Chapter 1).
4. Inspect, unpack, and unload the UPMs (refer to the applicable Powerware
9315 Installation manual provided with the UPM).
1
5. Wire the system (refer to Chapter 2 and the applicable Powerware9315
Installation manual provided with the UPM).
6. Install features, accessories, and/or options, as applicable (Chapter 3).
7. Complete the Installation Checklist (Chapter 2).
8. Have authorized service personnel perform preliminary operational checks and
startup.
NOTE: Startup and operational checks should be performed only by authorized
service personnel. This service is usually offered as part of the sales contract for your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system.Contactservicein advance (usually a two week notice is required) to reserve a preferred startup date.
1.1.1 Creating an Installation Plan

Page 24
1.1.2 Preparing Your Site
For your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system to operate at peak efficiency, your installation site should meet the environmental parameters outlined in the operator’s manual for the SSBM and UPMs. If you intend to operate the system at an altitude higher than 1500 meters (5000 feet), contact your local sales or service office for important information about high altitude operation. The operating environment must meet the size and weight requirements shown in the enclosed vendor drawings.
The basic environmental requirements for operation of the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system are:
Ambient Temperature Range: 0 --- 2 5 ˚C (32---77˚F)
Recommended Operating Range: 20---25˚C ( 6 8 --- 7 7 ˚F)
Maximum Relative Humidity: 95% noncondensing
The UPM cabinets use forced air cooling to regulate internal component temperature. The SSBM, battery and optional component cabinets use convection cooling to regulate internal component temperature. Air inlets are in the front of the cabinet, and outlets are in the top. You must allow clearance in front of and above each cabinet for proper air circulation.
1.1.3 Environment Considerations
The life of the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system will be adversely affected if the installation does not meet the following guidelines:
1. The system must be installed on a sealed concrete pad or a sealed concrete
floor.
2. The system must be installed in a temperature-controlled indoor area free of
conductive contaminants.
1.1.4 Preparing for Wiring the Parallel Capacity/Redundant System
NOTE: The external wiring and conduit sizings described in this manual are only
provided as a recommended approach. Many design considerations may require an external wiring and conduit configuration much different than the examples provided in this manual. Applicable local codes and national codes must be followed.
Table A in Appendix A covers SSBM and SMB power cabling for a 3
system. Table A is based on the entire 3 ambient and the use of 90_C copper wire. The 500kcmil and 600kcmil cables are used as examples.
Table B in Appendix A covers SSBM and SMB power cabling for a 3 system. Table B is based on the entire 3 ambient, use of 90_C copper wire and a 0.80 derating factor because there are more than three current carrying conductors in a raceway (NEC Table 310 ---16 and Notes). The 500kcmil and 600kcmil cables are used as examples.

NOTE: Two tables in Appendix A cover the cables running from the UPM output
terminals to the SSBM module input terminals E8 (
A), E9 (∅B), E10 (∅C),
and E4 (Neutral)
Table O covers the recommended wiring and conduit sizing based on the applicable Powerware 9315 Installation manual provided with the UPM. Using the noted power wiring, Table O shows the number of UPMs that can be connected toeach SSBM model. This number of UPMs is limitedby thenumber of cables connections for the SSBM module input terminals E8, E9, E10, and E4showninTableCinAppendixA.
If the parallel capacity/redundant system requires the connection of more UPMs to the SSBM than is shown in T a ble O, refer to Table P. Table P covers the recommended wiring and conduit sizing to support connection of the maximum number of UPMs (up to eight) for each SSBM model.
CAUTION: The UPM output wiring configurations in Table O in Appendix A do not that shown in the applicable Powerware 9315 UPS Installation manual. Review the planned UPM output power cables to ensure the planned cabling is compatible with the available number of cable connections at both the UPM and SSBM terminals.
match
Powerware UPMs are rated for operation in a 40_C room ambient. For this
reason, Table O and P are based on the entire 3
/ 3W system being housed
in a 40_C room ambient, the use of 90_C copper wire and a 0.80 derating factor because there are more than three current carrying conductors in a raceway (NEC Table 310 ---16 and Notes).
Refer to the applicable Powerware 9315 Installation manual provided with the UPM for all other UPM power cable requirements (AC input, DC input, and grounding)
NOTE: Review Table C in Appendix A to ensure the planned power cable
configuration is compatible with the available number of cable connections at each SSBM and SBM terminal.
NOTE: If additional cable connections are required, consider using FCI HYSTACK
Type ASA --- U adapters. HYSTACK P/N ASA250U covers NEMA 2-hole terminals for wire siz es from #8 AWG to 250kcmil. HYSTACK P/N ASA800U covers NEMA 2-hole terminals for wire sizes from #8 AWG to 800kcmil. Care must be taken in HYSTACK adapters to ensure the required phase-to-phase clearance of 1 inch and phase-to-ground clearance of 1 inch (1.5 inches in Canada) is maintained.
For external wiring, including the recommended minimum AWG size of external wiring, see Tables A, B, O, and P in Appendix A. The power wiring connections for this equipment are rated at 90˚C. Ifwireisruninanambienttemperaturegreater than noted above, higher temperature and/or larger size wire may be necessary. Control wiring for PowerNet, EPO and optional accessories (such as building alarms, monitoring interface and Maintenance Bypass control) should be connected at the customer interface panel at the top of the SSBM Powernode Panel (A1), which is shown in drawing 164201373---12 in Appendix A.

Understanding Parallel Capacity/Redundant System Operation
7
The Switchboard System Bypass Module (SSBM) supports the normal operation of the Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant system by offering parallel capacity/redundant capability. The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system continues to maintain power to the critical loads during commercial electrical power brownout, blackout, overvoltage, undervoltage, and out-of-tolerance frequency conditions. Refer to Figure 164201373 ---3 in Appendix A of this manual for the detailed relationship of the SSBM and the UPMs.
If utility power is interrupted or falls outside the parameters specified in the Powerware9315 Operation manual, the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system uses a backup battery supply to sustain power to the critical load for a specified period of time or until the utility power returns. For extended power outages, the backup battery supply allows you to either transfer to an alternate power system (such as a generator) or shut down the critical load in an orderly manner. Refer to the Powerware9315 Operation manual provided with the UPMs for operation of the UPMs.
7.1 Looking Inside the Parallel Capacity/Redundant System
The output of the system is normally supplied by several Uninterruptible Power Modules (UPMs). Multiple UPMs are connected with their outputs in parallel to provide a load level greater than the rating of one UPM and for redundancy. The paralleled UPMs supply the output load with protected power as long as the load does not exceed the combined rating of the paralleled UPMs.
The power system is denoted redundant as long as one of the UPMs can be disconnected from the output bus and the remaining UPMs can continue to supply power to the load without exceeding their ratings.
The SSBM, contains switchgear and components that allow the the UPMs to be paralleled and the source of system output power to be transferred between Bypass and the paralleled UPMs.
When the load is being supplied by the UPMs, the system output bus is continuously monitored by the SSBM for an over or under voltage condition. If an out of limits condition is detected, the SSBM will transfer the load to bypass using a high speed emergency bypass. The transfer will occur in less than 4 milliseconds.
The emergency bypass consist of a static switch, a wraparound bypass breaker (CBP) and a backfeed protection breaker (FBP). The backfeed protection breaker is located in series with the static switch. If an SCR shorts, the breaker will open so that the UPMs will not backfeed the bypass source, dropping the load when a utility outage occurs.
Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant System with PHP SSBM 164201373 Rev. A 092402
7--1
Page 54
During maintenance, the output of the system can be supplied power through the bypass breakers in the SSBM or the optional System Maintenance Bypass (SMB). The bypass input and breaker must be rated for the total system load since it must supply all of the system load when on bypass. Manual transfers between the bypass source and the paralleled UPMs are verified make before break.
Operations during transfers to bypass differ depending on the type of transfer: Manual or Emergency. Manual and Emergency transfers function as follows:
Fully Rated Static Switch: For Manual transfers to bypass, the static switch is not used. During the transfer, CBP is closed and verified and then CBS is opened. For transfers of the load from bypass to the UPMs, CBS is closed and verified and then CBP is opened. The static switch is armed and ready during both types of transfers.
For Emergency transfers to bypass, the static switch is turned on. During the transfer, CBP is closed and verified and then CBS is opened. The static switch turns off after a set time delay which allows the CBP and CBS breakers to complete their transfer.
Communications is required between the SSBM and UPMs in the system for full system operation. System level communications and control are accomplished using a dual redundant network known as PowerNet. PowerNet consists of two independent networks that are connected to each component network node in the parallel system.
Data is always transmitted on both networks simultaneously. Each network node monitors both PowerNets. Failure of one of the two will only result in an alarm condition. In addition, the applications at each node are designed such that messages can be lost on the network without affecting the operation of the system.

7.2 Standard Modes of Parallel Operation: Normal, Battery, and Bypass Modes
With the Parallel Capacity/Redundant s ystem, the system continues to function automatically to supply AC electrical power to the critical load. There are three standard operation modes:
In Normal mode, Parallel Capacity/Redundant system functions normally,
suppling clean, filtered power from the UPMs to the load.
In Bypass mode, the SSBM bypass input supplies the load and isolates the
UPMs.
In Battery mode, the battery cabinet supplies DC power, which maintains UPM
operation.
The following descriptions provide the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system operating mode differences.
Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant System with PHP SSBM 164201373 Rev. A 092402
7--3
Page 56
7.2.1 Normal Mode
In Normal mode, utility AC power is supplied to the UPMs. Power from the output of the UPMs is then supplied to the SSBM for parallel operation. The SSBM then supplies the critical load with clean, filtered AC power. The message “System Normal” appears in the status area of the Control Panel LCD screen.
Figure 7 ---1 shows the path of electrical power through the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system when operating in Normal mode.

If the utility AC power is interrupted or is out of specification, the UPMs automatically switch to Battery mode to support the critical load with no interruption. When utility power returns, the UPMs return to Normal mode.
If the UPMs becomes overloaded or unavailable, the SSBM switches to Bypass mode. The SSBM automatically returns to Normal mode when the error condition is cleared and system operation is restored within specified limits.

7.2.2 Bypass Mode
The SSBM automatically switches to Bypass mode if it detects a UPM overload, UPMs unavailable, load fault, or internal failure. The bypass source supplies the commercial AC power to the load directly.

You can transfer the SSBM from Normal mode to Bypass mode manually. However, the SSBM switches automatically to Bypass mode whenever the UPMs can no longer supply the critical load. If the SSBM transfers to Bypass mode from Normal mode due to an o utput voltage deviation, the SSBM automatically attempts to transfer back to Normal mode (up to three times within a 10-minute period). The fourth transfer or an overload condition will lock the critical load on the bypass source and requires operator intervention to transfer.
Bypass mode is a normal operating mode, and not an alarm condition. However, if the SSBM is unable to return to Normal mode following an automatic transfer to Bypass mode, an alarm condition will be recorded.

7.2.3 Battery Mode
The UPMs transfers to Battery mode automatically if a utility power outage occurs, or if the utility power does not conform to specified parameters. In Battery mode, the batteries provide emergency DC power that the inverters convert to AC power. When the UPMs switch to Battery mode, the alarm indications depend on the cause and condition of the battery charge. The length of time the system can operate in Battery mode depends on loading and the battery supply capacity.

When the discharging battery voltage reaches the lower limit of UPM operational capability, the critical load is transferred by the SSBM to Bypass mode, if it is available. If Bypass input is not available, a “Shutdown Imminent” warning occurs. The warning time before critical load loss occurs is approximately 2 minutes, depending on battery capacity and the amount of loading.
If incoming power returns to within specified parameters, the UPMs automatically return to Normal mode and alarm indications clear. However, the process of returning to Normal mode is not instantaneous. The UPMs gradually draw increasing power from the incoming utility until Normal mode is achieved.

7.3 Optional Modes of Parallel Operation: Maintenance Bypass and Redundant CBP
There are two optional modes of operation in this Parallel Capacity/Redundant system:
In Maintenance Bypass mode (optional), the SMB bypass supplies the load and
isolates the SSBM and UPMs for maintenance purposes.
In Redundant CBP mode (optional), if the CBP breaker fails to close during a
manual or automatic operation, the SSBM automatically closes the MBP breaker to maintain power to the critical load.
The following descriptions provide the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system optional operating mode differences.

7.3.1 Maintenance Bypass Mode (Optional)
The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system can be manually transferred to maintenance bypass if the System Maintenance Bypass (SMB) has been provided. Maintenance bypass is used when the system is not operating or is in need of service. The maintenance bypass source supplies the commercial AC power to the load directly. The SMB is configured with electrical interlocks.
CAUTION:
The critical load is not protected while the Parallel Capacity/Redundant
system is in Maintenance Bypass mode.

7.3.2 Redundant CBP Mode (Optional)
The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system can be protected against failure of the CBP breaker to close if an electrically interlocked System Maintenance Bypass (SMB) with Redundant CBP controls has been provided. The Redundant CBP controls protect the critical load against power losses caused by CBP close failures during manual or automatic operations.
Redundant CBP operations can be recognized by an alarm condition at the SSBM and the following breaker conditions:
CBP OPEN CBS OPEN FBP OPEN MIS CLOSED MBP CLOSED
CAUTION:
The critical load is not protected while the Parallel Capacity/Redundant
system is in Maintenance Bypass or Bypass mode.
Once Redundant CBP operation has occurred, the SSBM must be isolated to allow CBP breaker maintenance without impact on the system’s critical load. To achieve SSBM isolation, the Redundant CBP controls have been interlocked with the System Maintenance Bypass controls. To exit from Redundant CBP operation, the SMB control switch must be turned to the TO MAINT position. This action opens the UPS system MIS breaker and places the the UPS system fully into Maintenance Bypass mode.
After the CBP breaker has been repaired, the UPS system can be transferred from MaintenanceBypassmodetoBypassmodeasdescribedabove.
Figure 7 ---7 shows the path of electrical power through the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system when operating in Maintenance Bypass mode.

Operational Controls and Features
8.1 General
The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system should function automatically and require very little attention during normal operation. The controls and indicators identified in this section are used during startup, to monitor normal operation and during abnormal events.
Figure 8--- 1 (sheets 1 thru 4) identify and show the location of the controls and indicators on the typical Switchboard S ystem Bypass Module (SSBM) control section. The following descriptions provide a brief overview of the SSBM controls, and standard and optional features.
NOTE: Read the Operation section and have thorough knowledge of Parallel
Capacity/Redundant operation before attempting to operate. For a more detailed description of UPS operation, refer to Powerware9315 Operation manual supplied with the UPS system.
8.2 SSBM Standard Features
8
The SSBM has many standard features that provide cost-effective and consistently reliable power protection:
8.2.1 Control Panel
The Control Panel on the front of the SSBM control section contains an LCD screen to display the current status of the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system. You can view a statistical history and log of system events and display a real-time graphic representation of power flowing through the system components. Backlit status indicators show the operating mode of the SSBM and alert you to system events. The SYSTEM MODE switch, also located on this panel, is used to start and stop the system and transfer the load between normal UPM operation and bypass operation. The EMERGENCY UPM OFF pushbutton is located at the top of the control panel, and the PUSH IN TO RESET button for EMERGENCY UPM OFF is located above the SYSTEM MODE switch. The Control Panel is described in chapter 9, “Using the Control Panel”.
8.2.2 SSBM Circuit Breakers
The SSBM contains three circuit breakers, the System Output Breaker (CBS), the System Bypass Breaker (CBP), and the Backfeed Protection Breaker (FBP). CBS connects the output of the UPMs to the critical load. CBP is used as the bypass supply in the event the output of the UPMs are not available and to supply the critical load during maintenance. FBP is used to prevent power from being fed back to the UPMs in the event the static switch fails. These breakers are electrically controlled by the SSBM and are automatic in operation.

8.2.3 SMB Circuit Breakers
The System Maintenance Bypass (SMB) contains two breakers: the Maintenance Bypass Breaker (MBP) and the Maintenance Isolation Breaker (MIS). The MIS connects the output of the UPMs to the critical load via CBS. The MBP is used as the bypass in the event the output of the SSBM is not available and to supply the critical load during SSBM maintenance. These breakers are manually controlled through electrical interlocks which include a control switch mounted inside the Control Section on the A1 Panel.
8.2.4 Fully Rated Static Switch
The fully rated static switch is connected in series with the FBP and is only gated on during emergency transfers from Normal to Bypass mode. The fully rated static switch is electrically controlled by the SSBM and is automatic in operation.
8.2.5 EMERGENCY UPM OFF
An EMERGENCY UPM OFF pushbutton is provided for situations where you must instantaneously control the UPM and SSBM output. The pushbutton is located on the front of the SSBM for quick access and is covered with a clear plastic shield to prevent inadvertent operation. The shield must be raised before pressing the pushbutton. The EMERGENCY UPM OFF pushbutton is described in detail in Chapter 10, “Operating Instructions for the Parallel Capacity/Redundant System.”
8.2.6 Customer Interface Panel
PowerNet
Two redundant control networks connect UPM to UPM and UPM to the SSBM. Each network requires only one shielded twisted pair of wires. Refer to Appendix A, drawing 164201335 ---4 for further information.
Computer Interface
Two serial communications ports are standard on all units, and are electrically isolated from the SSBM. You can use these ports to link the SSBM to the features described in Chapter 13, “Serial Communications” and Chapter 14, “Remote Notification.”
Summary Alarm Contacts
Alarm contacts are provided for connection to equipment at your facility, such as a light, an audible alarm, or a computer terminal. The equipment you connect to these contacts alerts you to an SSBM alarm. This feature is described further in Chapter 11, “Using Features and Options.”
Building Alarm Monitoring
You can connect your facility’s alarm system contacts to six inputs in the S SBM. The SSBM uses these inputs to monitor your building alarms in addition to the SSBM status. This feature is described further in Chapter 11, “Using Features and Options.”
8.2.7 Customer Convenience Outlet
An uninterruptible 120VAC, 0.2 amp, fuse-protected convenience outlet is provided to supply power to the optional modem. It is located adjacent to the Customer Interface Panel.
8.2.8 Installation Features
Power wiring can be routed through the top or bottom of each cabinet. External sensing and monitoring control wire must be installed in accordance with Class 1 wiring methods. Class 1 wiring can be routed through the top or bottom of each cabinet.
