Before installing wiring on the power shelf, make sure that the input power cables are not energized.
Note
Required Tools and Equipment
You need the following tools to perform this task:
•
DC power cables
•
DC power cable lugs
•
Crimping tool and lug specific die
•
3/8 in. ratchet wrench with 10-mm socket
•
Multimeter
•
Torque wrench with 10-mm 6 pt. socket and rated accuracy at 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m)
Steps
To wire the DC power shelf, perform the following steps:
SUMMARY STEPS
1.
Remove the terminal block covers, if installed.
2.
Verify the following resistance values on both power shelves:
3.
Use the crimping tool mandated by the lug manufacturer to crimp the lugs to the DC-input cables. For
details on lugs, see the
DC Power Systems, on page 6
.
4.
Using the wrench, attach the positive and negative cable pairs to each terminal block on the upper power
shelf (Power A). Start with PM0 (located on the right side) and move left, finishing with PM7(located on
the left side). Use the torque wrench to tighten to a torque of 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m). Route the power cables
for the upper power shelf to the left.
5.
Using the wrench, attach the positive and negative cable pairs to each terminal block on the lower power
shelf (Power B). Start with PM0 (located on the right side) and move left, finishing with PM7(located on
the left side). Use the torque wrench to tighten to a torque of 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m). Route the power cables
to the right.
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1
Remove the terminal block covers, if installed.
Step 2
Verify the following resistance values on both power shelves:
•
The resistance between the positive and negative power terminal studs of each input must be greater than 90 KOhm.
•
The resistance between each positive terminal stud and bare metal surface on the power shelf must be greater that
10MOhms.
•
The resistance between each negative terminal stud and bare metal surface on the power shelf must be greater that
10MOhms.
