To connect the indicator to the scale using the home run cable, remove the
protective cap from the bottom connector on the junction box. Apply noncon-
ductive silicone grease inside the protective cap and if needed, also on the
cable connector, before connecting. Refer to Figure 6.

Grounding details

Install the T-gap covers, (optional), at each end of the scale to cover the gap
between the edge of the scale deck and the bulkhead.

The scale is now ready for testing, calibration, and inspection (as required).

Figure 6

Interconnecting details

For best grounding we
recommend one grounding
rod for each end of a scale,
one grounding rod for each
junction of scale decks, and
a separate ground for the
power source in accordance
with NEC Code 250. When
possible, this power source
ground should also be tied
to the scale grounds.
