Equipment Location

  • This equipment is intended to be installed in a restricted access location.
  • The permanent location of the equipment must be on a smooth and solid wall surface. Do not locate the equipment against a non-fireproof ceiling. Allow a space of 3 feet between the ceiling and the equipment unless an adequate fireproof  shield is provided. Also, verify that the selected location will provide working clearances in compliance with Article 110.26 of the National Electrical Code (NEC). The environmental conditions of the selected location should also be reviewed. Refer to section 6.2 Environmental for environmental specifications.

Equipment Mounting
The equipment should be reliably secured to the mounting surface. Do not depend on wooden plugs driven into holes in masonry, concrete, plaster or similar materials in accordance with Article 110.13 of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Secure the equipment utilizing the four 0.375-inch diameter mounting holes located in the back of the equipment. A set of equipment drawings for the specific configuration of the equipment is included inside the equipment. Reference the equipment drawings or mounting hole size and locations. (See drawings in the Reference Materials section.)

Equipment Connections

  • Never work on power equipment while it is energized. De-energize equipment and lock off all power to the equipment before working inside.

The top and bottom panels of the equipment are the recommended designated areas for landing conduits to the equipment. All conduits must be located to avoid interference with structural members and live bus. A set of drawings for the specific configuration of the equipment is included inside the equipment. Reference the equipment drawings in Section 10 Reference Materials.

  • All conductors are to be sized for 167°F (75°C) ampacity. When cable is used with temperature ratings above 167°F/75°C, it shall be sized based on the ampacity of cable rated 167°F (75°C).
  • The equipment must be grounded with an appropriately sized conductor in compliance with Article 250 of the National Electrical Code (NEC). The ground conductor should be terminated to the main ground bus bar inside the equipment.

Remove the equipment covers as needed to access the input and output connection points. Where cables enter or exit the equipment or pass through any metal which has magnetic properties, they shall be arranged so all phase and neutral conductors are grouped together and pass through the same opening in compliance with Article 300.20 of the National Electrical Code (NEC). When pulling cable into the equipment, take care not to damage any of the internal components and control wiring. Position the cables inside of the equipment so they are not subject to physical damage and are not forced permanently against the edges of any metal parts. If any cables are in contact with sharp edges, place suitable protective material between the cable and the metal edge to protect the cable insulation. Using the appropriate tools, strip a length of insulation from the end of the cable sufficient to fit into the full length of the mechanical lug for the designated connection point. If using aluminum conductors, apply an appropriate antioxidant compound to the bare aluminum. Insert the bare conductor into the lug so the bare conductor fills the full length of the mechanical lug body. Tighten the set screw on the mechanical lug and torque to the values indicated on the Torque Values Label located on the equipment. Reference the Equipment Schematic Drawing for information on the required connections between the Maintenance Bypass Panel, the UPS and the critical load.

Pre-Energizing Inspection

Inspection and maintenance should only be performed on equipment that has been de-energized and electrically isolated so that no accidental contact can be made with energized parts.

The top and bottom panels of the equipment are the recommended designated areas for landing conduits to the equipment. All conduits must be located to avoid interference with structural members and live bus. A set of drawings for the specific configuration of the equipment is included inside the equipment. Reference the equipment drawings in Section 10 Reference Materials.
Before energizing the equipment, it must be thoroughly inspected.

  1. Remove any foreign materials from inside of the equipment including tools, scraps of wire or other debris.
  2. Visually inspect the equipment for any damage that may have occurred during the installation process. Be sure to inspect all insulators, busbars and other conductors. Do not energize if any damage is found!
  3. Verify cable phase orientation at all connection points.
  4. Verify all field cable connections are properly torqued.
  5. Manually operate all circuit breakers to verify proper operation.
  6. Verify the circuit breaker trip unit adjustments are set per the end-user requirements.
  7. Verify equipment ground connections are properly terminated.
  8. Review the Kirk Key interlock operating sequence and confirm the Kirk Key interlocks are performing properly.
  9. Verify all covers are installed.
