Phases
A 1-phase system needs every load row on L1.
Redundancy topology
2(N+1) is two N+1 paths. Dual paths need two full-duty battery banks.
3 · Operating conditions
Growth
Added to the connected load; default 25 %.
Ambient
Derates above the 40 °C rated ambient.
Altitude
Derates above 1000 m, 1 % per 100 m by default.

Notes
- UPS frame and module count sized against the design load (connected × diversity × growth) for the stated redundancy topology.
- Battery energy sized for the target autonomy by the simplified-Wh method (IEEE 1100 framing); rigorous cell selection is IEEE 485 (N° 14 Battery Sizing).
- Rated-PF policy, efficiency curve and battery correction factors are assumptions — see the assumptions register; verify against vendor data before issue.
