uncrate them, and place them in final positions
•
Common electrician's hand tools, including jeweler's
screwdriver, electrical tape, wire cutters and strippers, 12
AWG to 6 AWG wire
•
Proper crimping tools and dies for connectors used
•
Common mechanic's hand tools, including flat blade
screwdriver (.30 inch blade width), socket and torque
wrench for 3/8 inch bolts, channel lock pliers for ac conduit
tightening, hammer, and crowbar for uncrating

*Use KS24194 L2 wire. It is a flexible, stranded copper wire, rated 600 volts; stranding
meets American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) B 172 Class I. This
non-halogen, insulated wire is rated 90°C. The insulation has a minimum Oxygen Index
of 28% as determined by ASTM D2863. Wire sizes were chosen to limit the voltage
drop in the output leads to 2 volts maximum where the cable loop is approximately 100
feet.
**Provided with rectifier, attached to left side of TB3, output terminal block
