Electrical Installation

Four-Section Models

The primary driver and power panel will be located in the top section (Section A). Refer to
the component location drawings attached to the product specification sheets listed in
Appendix A for exact driver locations.

Open access panels as needed to locate the coiled bundles of interconnect cable, then route
and connect the cables as described below and shown in Figure 24.

1. Route the interconnect cable labeled P50 coming from the A3 driver in Section B up

into Section A and connect it to the J50 jack coming from the power panel.

2. Route one end of the interconnect cable labeled P51 from Section B up into Section A

and connect it to the J51 jack coming from the power panel.

3. Route one end of the interconnect cable labeled P52 from Section B up into Section A

and connect it to the J52 jack coming from the power panel.

4. Route the interconnect cable labeled P51 coming from the A5 driver in Section C up

into Section B and connect it to the interconnect cable labeled J51.

5. Route the interconnect cable labeled P52 in Section C up into Section B and connect it

to the interconnect cable labeled J52.

6. Route the interconnect cable labeled P53 coming from the A7 driver in Section D up

into Section C and connect it to the interconnect cable labeled J53.

3.7 Lightning Protection

The use of a disconnect near the scoreboard to completely cut all current-carrying lines
significantly protects the circuits against lightning damage. In order for this system to
provide protection, the power must be disconnected when the scoreboard is not in use.

The control console should also be disconnected from power and from the signal junction box
when the system is not in use. The same surges that may damage the scoreboard’s driver can
also damage the console’s circuitry.
