Installation
tools and test
equipment
The following tools and test equipment are required for battery
plant installation and testing.
•
Equipment to handle shipping containers, remove
framework from shipping containers, and erect framework
into final position. Minimum lifting capacity: 500 lbs
•
Common electrician’s hand tools
•
Proper crimping tools and dies for connectors used
•
Common mechanic’s hand tools
•
3/4-inch drill to bore holes for floor anchors
•
DMM (Digital Multimeter) with at least 0.05 % accuracy on
the dc scale
•
DC dummy load bank rated for 75 amperes minimum at 60
volts dc
•
Power supply, variable from zero to 60 volts dc at 2
amperes. Supply should have both coarse and fine output
controls
•
Six clip leads each capable of carrying 3 amperes
Suggested
installation
sequence
1. The plant may be wired with ac from the left side or the
right side. Connection points and wire types are indicated
on the plant wiring diagram, T-82670-31, Figure H4.
2. When running dc cable, be sure that all non-protected leads
are run in a separate cable rack from protected leads.
(“Protected”, in this sense, refers to overcurrent protection
by a fuse or circuit-breaker.) Battery leads are usually the
only unprotected leads.
3. All dc leads should be separated wherever possible from ac
leads to minimize electrical noise transmitted to the load.
4. Pair the battery potential lead with the associated return
lead of a given circuit for as much of the run as possible.
5. Separate all control leads and other small gauge wiring
from the ac and dc power leads to prevent physical
damage. (Routing of control leads within the controller is
described in the Controller manual.)
6. Torque all bolts making electrical connections to the
values in Table 4-A; torque all bolts for mechanical
connections to values in Table 4-B.
