Ground the Unit Follow this procedure to ground the unit.
1. Determine the minimum size grounding conductor required from the
following table.
2. To ground the unit to the structure ground bus, attach a unit grounding
conductor between the unit chassis and the structure ground bus.
The size of the grounding connector is based on the unit current rating.
Install the Unit Support Pan Follow this procedure to install the support pan.
ATTENTION: If this unit is installed in a series E…J section without a vertical
plug-in ground bus, it is necessary to either install a vertical plug-in ground bus
kit, catalog number 2100H-GS1, 2100H-79U, or 2100H-79UT, or ground the unit
to the structure ground bus.
Follow NFPA 70E safety guidelines when working on energized equipment.
To avoid personal injury and damage to the unit, be certain that the unit
operating handle is in the OFF/O position before proceeding.
