Installation
WARNING: Danger of electrical shock or injury.
Turn OFF power ahead of the panelboard or
switchboard before working inside the equipment
or removing any component
. Equipment is to be
installed and maintained by properly trained and
qualified personnel only.
In the following instructions and figures, numbers in
brackets refer to the items in Table 1.
1. Confirm the contents of the kit. This kit is for
installing the ground cable and neutral cable (if
neutral is required).
The kit contains parts for making the neutral
connection (if the panel is provided with one) and
ground connection on the TVSS. Sufficient #2 gauge
copper cable is provided for both ground and neutral
connections. If a neutral is not required, then discard
the portion of #2 gauge copper cable that is not
needed. Figure 1 shows all the parts included in this
kit, which are listed in Table 1.
2. Locate the terminal lugs in the TVSS unit. After
installation of the panel, ground, and neutral (if
provided) into the enclosure, locate the TVSS unit in
the panel interior. Make sure that the TVSS handle is
in the
OFF position. Remove the four #10-32 screws
(not shown) securing the cover and lift off the cover.
3. Installing the ground and neutral cable. Locate the
lugs marked Ground and Neutral (if required), as
shown in Figure 2. Loosen the hex screws on the lugs
with an Allen wrench (not provided). Locate the roll
of #2 copper cable [1] and determine the shortest
route to the equipment neutral (if applicable) and
ground. Cut one end of the cable and remove
approximately
5 / 8 inch of the shielding. Insert the
end of the #2 copper cable [1] into the lug marked
Ground and tighten the hex screw to 150 lb.-in. Repeat
this process with the remainder of the #2 copper cable
[1] for the
Neutral connection, if applicable.
