Suggested
Installation
Sequence
The plant may be wired with ac from the left side or the right
side. Typical routing of ac, dc and control cabling is shown on
the plant assembly drawing, J85500E-2. Connection points and
wire types are indicated on the plant wiring diagram,
T-82678-31.
When running dc cable, care should be taken to ensure 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. When Lucent Technologies VR
Batteries are used, the battery leads may be protected. Refer to
the Battery Manual for more detail on this option.
All dc leads should be separated wherever possible from ac leads
to minimize electrical noise transmitted to the load.
