2.3.1 Cable Grounding
Figure 2-2. Grounding Clamp Attachment
Except for the power cord, all cables routed through the cord grips should be grounded against the indicator enclosure.
1. Install the ground clamps on the grounding bar, use the ground clamp screws. Do not tighten the screws at this time.
2. Route the cables through the cord grips and the grounding clamps to determine the cable lengths required to reach
the cable connectors.
3. Mark the cables to remove insulation and shield, see Stripping Cables below.
4. Route stripped cables through the cord grips and grounding clamps.
5. Ensure the shields contact the grounding clamps and tighten the ground clamp screws.
Stripping Cables
To strip and ground foil insulated cable:
1. Strip the insulation and foil from the cable 1/2
"
(15 mm) past the grounding clamp.
2. Fold the foil shield back on the cable where the cable passes through the clamp.
3. Ensure the silver (conductive) side of the foil is turned outward for contact with the grounding clamp.
Figure 2-3. Foil Insulated Cable
To strip and ground braided shielding:
1. Strip the insulation and braided shield from a point just past the grounding clamp.
2. Strip another 1/2
"
(15 mm) of the insulation to expose the braid where the cable passes through the clamp.
Figure 2-4. Braided Insulated Cable
To strip and ground load cell cables;
Cut the shield wire just past the grounding clamp. Shield wire function is provided by contact between the cable shield and the
grounding clamp.
