ONSIDERATIONS

Refer to Appendix A - Site Planning Data and installation drawings in Figure 7 through

Figure 42. Determine AC currents for your system (kVA, voltage, and options). Also refer to

equipment nameplate for the model number, rating, and voltage. For wire termination data, refer

to Table 1 and Appendix B - Field Supplied Lugs.

WARNING
ALL POWER CONNECTIONS MUST BE COMPLETED BY A

LICENSED ELECTRICIAN THAT IS EXPERIENCED IN WIRING

THIS TYPE OF EQUIPMENT. WIRING MUST BE INSTALLED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE NATIONAL AND LOCAL

ELECTRICAL CODES. IMPROPER WIRING MAY CAUSE

DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT OR INJURY TO PERSONNEL.
VERIFY THAT ALL INCOMING HIGH AND LOW VOLTAGE

POWER CIRCUITS ARE DE-ENERGIZED AND LOCKED OUT

BEFORE INSTALLING CABLES OR MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL

CONNECTIONS.

NOTE
Use 75°C copper wire. Select wire size based on the ampacities in Table 3

of this manual, a reprint of Table 310-16 and associated notes of the

National Electrical Code (NFPA 70).

!

CAUTION
The weight of power cables must be adequately supported to

avoid stress on bus bars and lugs. In addition to weight support,

the following restraining method is recommended to control cable

movement during external fault conditions: Wrap line cables

together at 6 inches and 12 inches from the terminals with 5

wraps of 3/8 inch nylon rope or equivalent (tensile strength of

2000 pounds). Support remainder of cable with 5 wraps every 6

inches or 1 wrap every 1 inch.
