Determine conduit entry and exit locations on
the enclosure before mounting. See the
appropriate Outline drawing for
recommended conduit locations.
Allow for power in and power out wiring to be
located in separate conduit.
No conduit holes are provided in the
enclosure; therefore the customer must install
all conduit holes. Place a protective covering
over the components of the panel while
installing the conduit holes.
For NEMA 12/3R4/4X enclosure types, liquid
tight conduit and fittings shall be installed to
maintain the enclosure integrity.
2.5 Grounding
All field wiring shall be copper and have a
minimum insulation rating of 75
 C (167  F).
Size grounding conductors according to local
and national codes.
Each panel contains a grounding bus with
provisions for connecting a field-grounding
conductor.
All panels/enclosures must be grounded.
Grounding methods must comply to local and
national codes.
2.6 Power Wire (Greater than
120 VAC)
All field wiring shall be copper and have a
minimum insulation rating of 75
 C (167  F).
Size all wire based on panel nameplate
current ratings in accordance with local and
national codes. Do not use the cable sizes
listed in DET - 609 & DET - 610.
All power wiring must be routed away from
other wiring. Avoid running power wiring
parallel to other wiring without a minimum
separation distance of four (4) inches. Power
wiring should only cross perpendicular to
other wiring.
Input and output power shall be connected as
per the wiring diagram.
For drive panels of certain HP ratings and
panel configuration, no lugs are provided with
core drive, load reactor, contactor or overload
relay. Use appropriate size UL listed ring or
fork or suitable ferrule to terminate the cables
on busbars terminals of core drive, load
reactor, contactor or overload relay.
2.7 Control Wiring (120 VAC)
All field wiring shall have a minimum
insulation rating of 75
 C (167  F).
Size wire according to local and national
codes.
CAUTION: Do not connect power supply
voltage greater than panel rated voltage,
or damage will occur to equipment.
WARNING: Never connect or disconnect
input wiring with voltage applied, a serious
or fatal injury may result.
CAUTION: Failure to cover components from
metal shavings may result in damage to
equipment.
WARNING: Never connect or disconnect
output wiring with voltage applied, a
serious or fatal injury may result.
