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.
