Junction Box and Grounding 7
3.0 Junction Box and Grounding
Electrical conduit is pre-installed at the factory and only needs to be connected between the modules and from the
modules to the junction box (J-box). Following conduit work, load cell cables are routed through each conduit from
the load cells to the J-box. All load cell cabling used for this installation comes in the shipping container. The
layout pattern for the electrical conduit on a three module truck scale installation is shown in Figure 3-2.

3.1 Load Cells to Junction Box
Each load cell is equipped with 30' of load cell cable, sufficient to reach a centrally-located junction box on
standard scales. A conduit adapter and a 14" section of 3/4" flexible conduit is supplied for both ends of each load
cell cable located at the load cell and at the junction box. Main conduit runs between these 14" flexible end sections
are 3/4" galvanized metal conduit already installed on the deck as shown above.
• Flexible conduit can not come in contact with the ground. Plastic tie wraps are included in the hardware shipping
box and should be used to tie up the flexible conduit.
• If using a single B module, some of the conduit runs are not used. These conduit runs are used when more than one
B modules are installed.
