5.

Run 4 DC branch circuits back to the -48V source- Each feed supplies half of the shelf. A&B feeds for side

1 and A&B feeds for side 2.

Size each circuit to support 42 Amp List 2 Drains. Note: Lug landings are ¼ inch studs on 5/8 inch

centers. Use a minimum of 6 AWG conductor for environments up to +65°C (reference NEC Table 310-16

for applications of not more than three conductors in a raceway and correction factors for Ambient

Temperatures Over 30°C). Each installation will vary and the installer should review NEC cabling

requirements as well as local practice to ensure proper cable sizing is achieved for the local conditions.

Lugs for 6AWG conductor are as follows or available equivalent:
T&B 6STR30W
Burndy YAV6C-L2TC14-FX
