Tripp Lite by Eaton Optional 10 ft. / 3.05 m Input Power Cord for Hardwired UPS Systems, L6-30P, 208/240V, 30A

The Tripp Lite SU30ACORD is engineered to streamline the connection between select hardwired UPS systems and the facility power supply. This high-capacity input power cord is crafted for reliability in critical environments where uptime matters—data centers, server rooms, IT closets, and heavy-use workspaces. With a robust 10-foot length, heavy-gauge 8 AWG conductors, and a locking L6-30P input plug, it delivers a secure, low-impedance path for 208/240V power at up to 30A. Designed to work seamlessly with Tripp Lite’s SU6000RT3U, SU6000RT3UHV, and other compatible hardwire UPS models, the SU30ACORD eliminates the guesswork from hardwire installation and helps protect your equipment from power disturbances while simplifying cable management and compliance with electrical codes.

• Heavy-duty 8 AWG, 3-conductor cabling: Built to carry high current with lower resistance, reducing heat buildup and enabling stable performance for demanding UPS input loads and long cable runs.
• Locking L6-30P input plug: Provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection that resists accidental unplugging during operation, ideal for busy data centers and environments with movement or equipment vibration.
• 10 ft (3.05 m) length: Flexible routing from UPS to power source, giving installers room to maneuver and organize cables neatly in racks, cabinets, or utility rooms.
• Compatibility with select Tripp Lite hardwire UPS systems: Specifically designed for input connections to SU6000RT3U, SU6000RT3UHV, and other Tripp Lite hardwire UPS configurations, enabling a straightforward upgrade or replacement path.
• Plug-in installation for professional environments: Engineered for quick, dependable setup in server rooms and data centers, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance when swapping or upgrading UPS systems.

How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton Optional 10 ft. / 3.05 m Input Power Cord

• Verify compatibility: Confirm that your UPS model is among the supported Tripp Lite hardwire units (for example, SU6000RT3U or SU6000RT3UHV) and that the circuit is rated for 208/240V and 30A. Only use this cord with compatible Tripp Lite hardwire UPS input configurations.

• Power down and prepare: Shut off power to the UPS and disconnect it from the site power before handling cables. Ensure the surrounding area is clear, dry, and free from standing water or moisture.

• Route the cord: Position the 10 ft cord so it has a clean, unobstructed path to the power source and UPS input. Avoid sharp edges, heat sources, and foot traffic to minimize wear and risk of damage over time.

• Connect the hardwire end: The output end of the SU30ACORD terminates to the UPS input terminal block. Following the UPS manufacturer’s installation manual, connect the three conductors to the appropriate terminals and tighten to the recommended torque. Ensure proper grounding and conductors are fully seated.

• Connect to power: On the opposite end, insert the L6-30P locking plug into a dedicated 208/240V, 30A circuit receptacle or follow local electrical codes for the installation method. Confirm the circuit breaker is sized appropriately for the load and that all connections are secure before powering the UPS back up.

• Test and verify: Restore power and perform a controlled test per your facility’s procedures and the UPS manual. Verify that the UPS recognizes input power and the connected equipment remains protected during simulated outage conditions.
