High-Resistance Ground Systems

Liebert NX 400-600kVA units produced on or after August 1, 2013, with serial numbers as indicated below, are 
compatible with High Resistance Ground (HRG) applications. Earlier production units may NOT be compatible 
with HRG application and may either bear no label or be specifically labeled as not compatible. If the Liebert NX 
UPS is NOT labeled as either compatible or not compatible, contact the factory before installing the unit in an 
HRG application.

Liebert NX Serial Numbers/Compatibility with High Resistance Ground

NX 225-600 kVA serial numbers are structured as follows:

(Digits 12, 13 and 14 are underlined above)

Digits 12 and 13

 of the serial number represent the year of production

Example—

1 3

 = calendar year 2013; 

1 4

 would represent calendar year 2014.

Digits 1 

and 

3

 represent the month

Example—

1-9

 = January-September, A = October, B = November, C = December

(e.g. 

1 38

 = August 2013, 1 3C= December 2013)

HRG compatibility was instituted for Liebert NX 400-600kVA units effective August 1, 2013, so serial numbers 
with Digits 12,13 and 14 of 

1 38

 or higher designate Liebert NX 400-600kVA units that have HRG compatibility.

Contact the factory for HRG compatibility for Liebert NX 225-300kVA units.

The output switchboard for a 1+N system must be configured with one Module Output Circuit Breaker (MOB) for 
each UPS module to be connected to that switchboard. The breaker must be equipped with auxiliary contacts 
that will be monitored by the UPS so that interlocks will function properly and for the HMI to indicate the 
bypassed status of the module. Vertiv recommends using magnetic or thermomagnetic breakers. If molded case 
switches will be used, Vertiv recommends installing breakers without electronic trip units or to set the trip units 
as follows:

For 225-300kVA Modules

: 2000A for 2 milliseconds

For 400-600kVA Modules

: 3000A for 2 milliseconds.
