TECHNICAL ADVISORY BULLETIN
Recommended Grounding for SE41 Remote Power Node Enclosure
Date: 4/21/2020
Model #:
SE41 Remote Power Node Enclosure
Issue
•
As there are three different configurations of the SE41 RPN enclosure, additional information on
grounding is required beyond what is provided in the installation manual.
Corrective Action
•
Provide grounding instructions with diagrams for the three different configurations of the SE41 RPN
enclosure.
•
The grounding specifications and diagrams depicted in this TAB are based on recommended
industry best practices. However, site grounding design and construction shall always adhere to
local electrical codes and the internal standards of the company that is responsible for ownership
and operation of equipment.
Warning
•
Only qualified personal should install and connect the power components within the Alpha
system.
•
An enclosure that is not properly grounded presents an electrical hazard and will likely result in
premature equipment failure.
•
A proper grounding system (i.e. ground electrode system) that meets or exceeds the
specifications of the equipment must be designed and installed prior to or in conjunction with
the installation. The ground system must be bonded to the enclosure to ensure a “common” or
“single
-
point”
ground.
