Although ground mounting the power supply can be accomplished by several methods, the
following procedure is recommended.
1.
Select an appropriate site. Remove the turf and level an area of approximately 36" x
36".
2.
In accordance with local codes, install the disconnect box near the AC power
source.
The disconnect box should have a high-magnetic type circuit breaker, capable
of passing short duration inrush currents, and have a 15A minimum rating.
3.
From the disconnect, install conduit to the power supply site and turn a stub up to
extend above ground level. Drive a suitable ground rod according to local codes.
Install appropriate size conduit for the output connections and turn a stub up to
extend flush with the pad surface cast into the concrete. Ensure the conduit
locations correspond with the appropriate cabinet connections.
4.
Use 1" x 4" lumber to construct a form for the cement pad (see figure for
dimensions). Anchor the form securely to the ground.
It is recommended that the cement pad dimensions extend beyond the ground skirt
by 3" in front, and 3-5" in the back.
