1.3.3

System Grounding

The performance and safety of any power conditioning system depend upon proper grounding. 

Figure 14

 shows 

the typical grounding arrangements for the Liebert PPC. 

Equipment grounding

—Grounding is primarily for safety. Correct implementation of grounding also enhances 

equipment performance. All power feeders must include equipment grounding means as required by the NEC 
and local codes.
An insulated ground conductor is recommended to be run in each feeder conduit. Ground conductors must be 
at least the minimum size per NEC Table 250-66. Larger wire sizes may be used for increased system 
performance.
If the input power feeder conduit is used as a grounding conductor, adequate electrical continuity must be 
maintained at all conduit connections.

Signal reference grid

—If the unit is used to supply power to a computer room or area that is equipped with a 

signal reference grid or a grounded raised-floor stringer system, a grounding conductor should be connected 
from the system ground bus to the grid or floor system. This conductor should be stranded or braided #8 AWG 
or larger, and as short as practical. Less than 3 ft. (1 m) is recommended.

1.3.4

Grounding Electrode Conductor (Units With Transformer)

Required by code

—The Liebert PPC with transformer must be grounded according to the safety practices of 

NEC 250-26. A local grounding electrode conductor is recommended in addition to the equipment safety 
ground, which is normally run with the input power conductors. 

Unit connection

—A terminal is furnished inside the unit for field-connection of the grounding electrode 

conductor. (See 

Figures 6

8

 and 

10

.)

Electrode connection

—As shown in 

Figure 14

, the grounding electrode conductor is run from the unit to the 

nearest effectively grounded (in order of preference):

1.

Building steel

2.

Metal water pipe

3.

Other made grounding electrode

Sizing of the grounding electrode conductor is based on the secondary circuit conductors. 

Table 7

 shows the 

minimum recommended grounding electrode conductor according to the NEC.

WARNING

Risk of electrical shock. Can cause equipment damage, improper operation, injury and death.
Isolating bushings must not be used in a metal conduit run. These busings might prevent the system 
from being properly grounded.
