Grounding System Installation
Install a grounding system (not provided) that meets all local electrical codes. Check local codes
for grounding system installation, use of clamps, wire size, and any other grounding
requirements. Typically, #6 AWG copper wire is used for the ground wire. If the grounding
system includes a ground rod, install the rod (see
) within the PMF opening at the
indicated point. When installed, the top of the rod should be located 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08
cm)
below
the top of the finished concrete pad. Leave sufficient slack in the grounding wire to
allow it to be routed into the cabinet after the cabinet is mounted on the pad.

Mounting the Cabinet on the Concrete Pad
Use the 216B key tool to un-latch and latch the cabinet doors as needed during the mounting
process. Refer to
as necessary when mounting the cabinet.
Use the following procedures to mount the cabinet on the concrete pad.
1. Use a 3/16-inch hex-key to remove the screws that secure the front and back access covers
to the cabinet ground spacer/riser as shown in
2. Remove the plastic plugs that are installed in the threaded holes of the PMF and clean off
any concrete that may have adhered to the top of the PMF.
Warning:
Use appropriate lifting equipment when moving or installing the cabinet. Do not
stand under the cabinet as it is being hoisted into position for installation. A failure of the lifting
equipment could result in serious personal injury.
Note:
Make sure all remnants of concrete are removed from the PMF prior to mounting
the cabinet. It is not necessary to use shims to level or align the cabinet as long as the top
surface of the PMF is clean and free of any installation debris.
