Cable Entry Locations
The enclosed HarmonicGuard Active filters are not provided with enclosure wiring knockouts,
however, a removable wire entry plate is provided. A selection can be made at the time of installation.
Typical or recommended cable entry locations are shown in the drawings shipped with the unit.
Caution
Refer to circuit breaker section on page 50.
Field Wiring Connection Terminals
Compression type terminals are provided for all field wiring connections. The wire size (75° C copper)
capacity ranges and tightening torque for the grounding and power terminals are listed in Table 4.1a
and 4.1b. Refer also to the drawings and other information shipped with the unit. A disconnecting
means is the responsibility of the customer.
