Cable Rack and
Routing
To help plan for the routing and support of battery plant cabling,
typical arrangements are shown on the H569-416 drawing.
Grounding
The ECS battery plant is designed for compatibility with most
grounding systems. The standard discharge return bus is located
in the initial bay. Alternatively, the battery plant return bus
system may be mounted in the overhead cable rack.
When the discharge return bus is in the initial bay, a connection
point is provided on it specifically for grounding. This point may
be used to tie the battery plant to the building grounding
electrode with up to 2 AWG wire. The ECS battery plant
framework is equipped with a 6 AWG frame grounding
conductor for connection with the aisle frame ground conductor.
See the T-83171-31 wiring diagram for more information.
Growth
As in the selection of protector and wire sizes for load feeders,
building systems should be designed for ultimate growth. Cable
rack support and ac distribution cabinets should be sized for the
maximum anticipated battery plant capacity. Floor space and
weight capacity should also account for any increase in battery
reserve.
Ordering
Many customers are familiar with Lucent Technologies's
drawings, diagrams and other product documentation and use
these tools in specifying and ordering their power equipment.
This system is reviewed in paragraphs “Coding and
Terminology” through “SD-drawings.” The paragraph
“Documentation References” is a summary of the
documentation references.
Coding and
Terminology
The two main categories of Lucent Technologies hardware are
called APPARATUS and EQUIPMENT. The battery plant
ordering process primarily involves Equipment for the system
and Apparatus for components and replacements.
An apparatus code identifies one specific arrangement of
hardware. The product is available in one form only. Lucent
Technologies Coded Apparatus is always specified by the code
followed by the descriptor. For example,
