General
Information
1. The plant may be wired with ac from the left side or the
right side. Typical routing of ac, dc and control cabling is
shown on the plant assembly drawing, H569-408.
Connection points and wire types are indicated on the plant
wiring diagram, T-82670-30.
2. When running dc cable, care should be taken to ensure that
all non-protected leads are run in a separate cable rack
from protected leads. (Protected, in this sense, refers to
overcurrent protection by a fuse or circuit-breaker.)
Battery leads are usually the only unprotected leads. When
Lucent VR Batteries are used, the battery leads may be
protected. Refer to the Battery Manual for more detail on
this option.
