Installing a VCE

Installation Manual 323-3221-291 Rel 1.0 Standard
Procedure 2-2
Cabinet installation (Zone 4 earthquake)
Use this procedure to install a VCE where Zone 4 earthquake protection is
required, that is, the
VCE is bolted to the floor; see Figure 2-1 on page 2-1 for
clearances and location information.
Note 1:
Prior to shipping the cabinet to the site, determine the type of
electrical distribution panel and the availability of a suitable 120 Vac, 15 A
power supply with a double-pole breaker/isolator. Check where power
cable and signal cables are to be run. Arrange for any outside contract work
to be completed prior to the installation of the cabinet.
Note 2:
A VCE must be bolted to the floor for Zone 4 earthquake protection
using the Floor Mounting Kit (PEC NT2H57KC) option. A VCE must be
connected to the local power through a conduit or armoured cable.
Note 3:
The Floor Mounting Kit (PEC NT2H57KC) must be used for this
option. Although the leveling feet may be used to initially level the cabinet,
the entire weight of the cabinet must rest on the support shims provided in
the kit, and not on the leveling feet.
