B&C Technologies SP Series Commercial - Manual (Page 36)

Note: Wire sizes shown are for copper, THHN, 90 conductor per NEC article 310 (USA).
The machine should be connected to an individual branch circuit not shared with lighting or other
equipment.
Because this is a vibrating machine, the use of SO cable or similar, with a twist-lock plug, to connect
the machine to main power is recommended. A shielded liquid tight or approved flexible conduit
with proper conductor of correct size installed in accordance with National Electric Code (USA) or
other applicable codes is also acceptable. The connection must be made by a qualified electrician
using the wiring diagram provided with the machine. See the Electrical Connection data Chart for
correct wire sizes.
For personal safety and for proper operation, the machine must be grounded in accordance with
state and local codes and in the USA in accordance with the National Electric Code, article 250-96.
The ground connection must be to a proven earth ground, not to conduit or water pipes.
Do not connect the ground to the neutral (N) leg at the terminal strip (if so equipped).
If a DELTA supply system is used, the high leg should be connected to T, since control voltage is
derived from R and S.
Insure that the control transformer taps are connected in accordance with the incoming line volt-
age. Verify connections as shown on the schematic with each machine.
