Re: UPS for 9406-170

Along with every APC SmartUPS comes a plug to make your own cable(s)
that are accepted by the receptables at the back of the UPS.
You simply cut off and replace the wall plug on your cable with this new one,
be careful about orientaton of the wires (ground is yellow/green and goes to the
middle connector) the plug has screws, no soldering required.
