Power Supply Sources (J58890CE-1, J58890CE-2, and J58890CH-1)
The connect AC power and ground procedures apply to the AC-powered PPN and EPN cabinets.
Any of these power sources can supply 60 Hz power to the AC load in Release 5 and later systems:
- Single-phase, 4-wire, 120/240 VAC supplying 240 VAC.This source has 2 hot wires, 1 ground wire, and 1 neutral wire (J58890CE).
- Single-phase, 4-wire, 120/208 VAC supplying 208 VAC. This source has 2 hot wires, 1 ground wire, and 1 neutral wire (J58890CE).
- Single-phase, 3-wire, 208 or 240 VAC. This source has 2 hot wires and 1 ground wire (J58890CH).
Either of these power sources can supply 50 Hz power to the AC load in Release 5 and later systems:
- Non-United States 5-wire, Y, 220/380 VAC. This source has 3 hot wires, 1 neutral wire, and 1 ground wire.
- Non-United States Delta, 4-wire, 220 or 240 VAC. This source has 3 hot wires and 1 ground wire.
AC Power Sources and Plug Type describes the power sources and required AC input power.
Grounding an AC-Powered System (J58890CE)
Grounding is relatively simple for an AC-powered system. Basically, the cabinets connect to the single-point ground terminal block located at either the AC load center or to a separate single-point ground block wired to the AC load center (or optional AC protector cabinet).
- The approved ground wire must be a green (or green with yellow stripe), 6 AWG (#40) (16 mm
2), copper, stranded wire.
- Bond all approved grounds at the single-point ground to form a single grounding electrode system.
