JuiceGoose PD3 - Manual (Page 2)

GENERAL WIRING DESIGN
The PD3 is configured, within the bounds of
certain design constraints, to custom specifi-
cations.
The PD3 includes multiple, single phase cir-
cuits and therefore multiple “hot” and “neutral”
wire leads. These circuits may be rated for
either 20 amp or 30 amp current. The rating
of a particular circuit is indicated by the rating
of the AC receptacle(s) connected to it. Al-
teration of this assembly or use of underrated
connectors may be hazardous.
Individual grounds are provided for each cir-
cuit in a PD3, unless otherwise specified at the
time of order. The “hot” leads are distin-
guished by the color of the wire used. The de-
sign of the various circuits is specified at the
time of order. The designation of the circuits
begins with the outlets nearest the place where
the wire harness exits the chassis. This circuit
is considered “Circuit #1”. Outlets on this cir-
cuit are connected to the black wire lead.
Outlets for each succeeding circuit are at-
tached to a different color lead in order as fol-
lows
Red
Yellow
Blue
Orange
Violet
Brown
For additional circuits, designations begin
again with black.
All “neutral” leads are white. All ground leads
are green. The exact configuration of the wir-
ing is determined by the specifications com-
municated with the purchase order.
INSTALLATION
The PD3 chassis is assembled with two mov-
able side mounting brackets. These brackets
may be positioned as required to match avail-
able rack mounting hardware. The distance
between mounting points should not exceed 48”. Al-
ways attach the PD3 to a stable surface using appro-
priate hardware such as a #10 machine screw and
nut.
The PD3 is not an “all weather” device. The surface
to which the PD3 is mounted should be stable and
protected from moisture and temperature extremes.
GROUND CONNECTION
Ground connection for the PD3 is to be made with
the green ground wire lead(s) installed in the unit. The
ground wires are connected to the AC receptacles
and to the PD3 chassis. Grounding is not to be made
solely by way of any metal conduit connected to the
chassis.
CAUTION
This PD3 is intended for commercial use only and is
to be installed only by a qualified electrical technician.
Installation or use in any manner inconsistent with this
documentation or with customary practice or local
wiring code may cause serious damage or injury. If a
malfunction is observed or suspected, disconnect this
device from AC power immediately and contact
Juice Goose or an electrical technician.
Each circuit in the PD3 is rated at either 20 or 30
amps. All wiring and components have appropriate
maximum current ratings. Do not exceed this capac-
ity. Do not disconnect, rewire or replace any com-
ponents.
There are no user servicable components inside the
PD3. Do not open the chassis.
SPECIFICATION
The internal and external wiring of the PD3 is either
10 or 12AWG THHN. The length of the external
wire harness is specified with the purchase order.
The electrical receptacles and all current conducting
components are UL recognized.
