Issue 02 (2018-09-30) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 1

 When installing or removing power cables, ensure that the corresponding circuits are
disconnected to prevent electric arcs or sparks.
 Note that the load may power off during maintenance or fault location if the power
system is not connected to a battery or if battery capacity is insufficient.
 Store cables for at least 24 hours at room temperature before laying out them if they were
previously stored at sub-0ºC.
 If screws or bolts used to secure the equipment are not tightened to the required torque,
the equipment may fall off the mounting kits.
 Routinely check installed equipment and perform maintenance according to the user
manual; replace faulty components quickly to ensure that the device works properly.
 After the equipment is installed, ensure that the output is not short-circuited. A short
circuit may burn the fuse.
 The equipment installation direction and cable diameter must comply with the
requirements in the quick guide. Otherwise, water may seep into the equipment or cables
and damage the equipment.
1.2 Electrical Safety

Grounding Requirements
 When installing a device, install the ground cable first. When removing a device, remove
the ground cable last.
 Before operating a device, ensure that the device is properly grounded. Ensure that the
ground cable is installed securely (the ground resistance is less than 0.1 ohm).
Inappropriate grounding may cause device damage and even personal injury.
AC and DC Operation Requirements
 The power system is powered by hazardous voltage. Direct or indirect contact (through
damp objects) with the voltage power may result in danger.
 Non-standard and improper operations may result in fire and electric shock.
 Before electrical connections, turn off the upstream protection switch for the device.
 Before connecting the AC power supply, ensure that electrical connections are complete.
 Before you connect cables to loads or battery cables, check cable and terminal polarities,
preventing reverse connections.
1.3 Lithium Battery Safety

Basic Requirements
 When handling lithium batteries, do not place them upside down, tilt them, or bump
them against the ground.

 Keep the battery loop disconnected during installation and maintenance.

 Do not charge a battery when the ambient temperature is less than the lower limit for the
operating temperature; otherwise, a short circuit may occur inside the battery.
 Do not throw a lithium battery in fire.
 When maintenance is complete, return the waste lithium battery to the maintenance
office.
 If new batteries are installed during an AC power failure, the batteries may not work
temporarily.
 Install batteries in a dry, clean, and ventilated environment that is free from corrosive
substances such as organic solvents and sources of ignition. Do not expose batteries to
sunlight or water.
Preventing Battery Short Circuit
Battery short circuits will generate high transient currents and release a great deal of energy,
which may cause personal injury.
If conditions permit, disconnect the batteries in use before performing any other operations on
them.
Preventing Battery Overdischarge

After you connect batteries, ensure that the battery fuse is disconnected or the circuit breaker
is OFF before powering on the power system. This prevents battery overdischarge, which
damages batteries.
1.4 Cable Layout

 User-supplied cables must meet the VW-1 testing requirements.
 Cables should be more than 20 mm away from heat source components or areas,
preventing direct damage (melting) to the insulation layer or functional deterioration
(aging or broken).
 The cable bending semidiameter should be greater than or equal to five times the cable
diameter.
 Ground cables must not be bound to or tangled with signal cables. A certain distance
should be left between them to reduce interferences.
 AC power cables, DC power cables, signal cables, and communications cables must be
bound separately.
 Cables of the same type should be bound together. Cables of different types should keep
a minimum distance of 30 mm in between. No tangles should be found.
 Cables that are bound together should be close to each other, neat, and free from damage.
 Power cables must be routed straight. No joints or welding should be performed on
power cables. Use a longer cable if necessary.

1.5 Mechanical Safety

Using a Ladder
 Before using a ladder, ensure that the ladder is intact. Check the weight bearing capacity
of the ladder. Do not overload the ladder.
 The recommended gradient of a ladder is 75 degrees. You can measure the gradient with
a right square or your arms, as shown in Figure 1-1. When using a ladder, ensure that the
wider feet of the ladder are downward, or take protection measures for the ladder feet to
prevent the ladder from sliding. Ensure that the ladder is placed securely.
Figure 1-1 Proper angle of a ladder
 When climbing a ladder, observe the following precautions:

− Ensure that the center of gravity of your body does not deviate from the edges of
the two long sides.
− To minimize the risk of falling, hold your balance on the ladder before any
operation.
− Do not climb higher than the fourth rung of the ladder (counted from up to down).
If you want to climb up a roof, ensure that the ladder top is at least one meter higher than the
roof, as shown in Figure 1-2.
Figure 1-2 One meter higher than the roof

Drilling Holes
Do not drill holes on the module without permission. Non-standard drilling may affect
electromagnetic shielding performance of the module and damage the internal cables, and
metal scraps generated during drilling may short-circuit a circuit board.
 Before drilling holes on the module, remove the cables inside the rack.
 Wear goggles and protective gloves when drilling holes.
 After drilling, clean up metal shavings.
Moving Heavy Objects

 Be careful to prevent injury when moving heavy objects.
 Wear protective gloves when moving sharp objects.

User Manual 2 Overview

2.1 Introduction
The distributed power system includes the power supply units (PSUs) (DPU30A-N06A1,
DPU30D-N06A1, and DPU40D-N06A1) and the lithium batteries (DBU20B-N12A1,
DBU20B-N12A2, DBU25B-N12A1 and DBU40B-N12A2). It is an indoor or outdoor
wall-mounted power solution that is highly efficient, compact, lightweight, easy to install, and
does not require parameter configuration or maintenance. The power system is designed for
wireless base stations and supports online capacity expansion.
When the AC input of the DPU30A-N06A1 is normal, the AC output port supplies power to
loads through the bypass and the DC output port supplies stable 48 V DC power to charge
batteries. If the AC input is abnormal, the DC input voltage is converted into stable 220 V AC
power which is then supplied to loads.
The DPU30D-N06A1/DPU40D-N06A1 converts AC or HVDC power into stable 48 V DC
power.
The lithium battery supplies backup power to communications equipment.

3.1 PSU (DPU30A-N06A1)

Functions
The PSU integrates power rectification, distribution, and monitoring. It converts AC power
into stable 48 V DC power to charge batteries. When the AC input is normal, the bypass
supplies power to loads. If the AC power fails, the energy provided by the batteries is inverted
to AC power for loads. This design ensures reliable power supply. The PSU also generates
fault alarms, and reports monitoring data to the upstream network management system (NMS)
in real time.

figure.
Figure 5-19 DC fuse
(1) Fuse
If any of the following has occurred, a DC fuse is faulty:

 The load has no power input though the PSU works properly.
 There are obvious black signs of burning on the fuse.
 The multimeter indicates that the resistance between both ends of the fuse is infinite or
the fuse circuit is open.
Procedure
Step 2 Record the quick connector for a BAT or LOAD port where the fuse should be replaced.
Step 3 Use a flat-head screwdriver to prize up the buckle on the quick connect terminal and remove
the terminal.

Step 4 Use an insulated flat-head screwdriver to remove the old fuse, as shown in the following
figure.
Figure 5-21 Removing the old fuse
As shown in the preceding figure, when the flat-head screwdriver is turned to Open, the flat-head bolt
ejects. Then remove the fuse.
Step 5 Install the new fuse in a reverse order of the removal procedure.
Step 6 Connect the quick connector to the BAT or LOAD port based on the recorded information.
Step 7 Use waterproof tape to seal the cable connections.
