2-2 Installation
MN1221
Mechanical Installation
The BPS must be securely fastened to the mounting surface by the BPS mounting holes.
The location of the mounting holes is shown in Section 3 of this manual.
Electrical Installation
All interconnection wires between the BPS, control, AC power source, motor, host control
and any operator interface stations should be in metal conduits. Use listed closed loop
connectors that are of appropriate size for wire gauge being used. Connectors are to be
installed using crimp tool specified by the manufacturer of the connector. Only class 1
wiring should be used.
System Grounding
The BPS is designed to be powered from standard three phase lines that are electrically
symmetrical with respect to ground. System grounding is an important step in the overall
installation to prevent problems. The recommended grounding method is shown in
Figure 2-1 and 2-2.

Note:
Use shielded cable for control signal wires. Route control signal wires in
conduit. These wires must be kept separate from power and motor wires.
