Mounting Guidelines
The power management system is enclosed in a NEMA
Type 3R enclosure suitable for indoor/outdoor use.
Guidelines for mounting the power management system
include:
• Install power management system on a firm, sturdy
supporting structure.
• The power management system must be installed with
minimum NEMA 3R hardware for conduit connections.
• Level and plumb the enclosure.This can be done by
placing washers between the power management system
enclosure and the mounting surface.
• NEVER install the power management system where any
corrosive substance might drip onto the enclosure.
• Protect the power management system at all times
against excessive moisture, dust, dirt, lint, construction
grit and corrosive vapors.
A typical installation of the power management system is
depicted in Figure 1. It is best if it is mounted near the main
breaker panel, either inside or outside. Discuss layout
suggestions/changes with the owner before beginning the
system installation process.
