Chapter 2 Installation Procedures
Joining and Splicing MCCs
with ArcShield In addition to the horizontal, neutral (if required), and ground bus splicing kits,
CENTERLINE MCCs with arc-resistant ratings have these additional
requirements:
• MCCs with the 100 ms arc-resistant rating have a back-corner baffle at the
end of each lineup and insulation on the side closing-plate at the end of the
lineup. They also have external vertical support angles at each end of the
lineup.
• MCCs with the device-limited rating have insulation on the horizontal bus
side closing-plates at each end of the lineup.
Installing and Joining Pull
Boxes When pull boxes are supplied with your MCC, refer to Installing a Pull Box on a
Bulletin 2100 Vertical Section, publication
2100-IN029 , for installing and
joining the pull box onto the vertical section.
Joining and Splicing NEMA
Type 12 MCCs NEMA Type 12 MCCs must be properly installed to prevent the ingress of dust
and dirt. Follow the caulking instructions in the NEMA Type 12 Sealing
Instructions, publication
2100-IN037 , supplied with the NEMA 12 MCC.
Using caulk, close any mounting holes in the bottom plates and bolt holes
between shipping splits.
It is necessary that all door latches and wireway doors be fully latched to prevent
dust and dirt from entering the enclosure and to meet NEMA Type 12
requirements.
Joining and Splicing NEMA
Type 3R and Type 4 MCCs A main horizontal bus, a neutral bus (if required) and a ground bus splice kit
must be installed between the internal sections for new and existing NEMA Type
3R and Type 4 MCCs. Refer to CENTERLINE 2100 Motor Control Centers
Joining and Splicing Vertical Sections Instructions, publication
2100-IN010 , for
splicing Type 3R and Type 4 internal sections.
