GE-VX INSTALLATION
GE-VX
Section B-8
Electrical Cables
-
All electrical cables must be installed according to local wiring codes.
-
All cable shields must be connected to the main control only. Do not connect it to the
GE-VX. The shield is needed to protect the modules against any electromagnetic
interference generated by lightning or nearby operating machinery.
-
Never use the shield as a conductor.
-
Use separate conduits for the low voltage cables (communication) and the high
voltage cables. There must be at least 1 foot (30 cm) between low-voltage and high-
voltage conduits.
-
If a low voltage cable has to cross over a high voltage cable, make this crossing at
90°.
-
All cable connections must be soldered or done with approved sealed connectors.
-
See main control manual for cable length.
-
It is prohibited to use overhead cables outside the building.
-
Use the wire connector to connect the ground wire to the ground of the electrical
installation.
Electrical Power
-
Protection from electrical surges should be included in the planning of each
installation.
-
Every module should have a separate breaker to avoid possible problem.
-
This module requires the same phase and voltage as the board to which it is
connected to (GE Control, Var Board (X1204), etc.).
