Procedure for installing grounding and signal cables.

Grounding and Signal Cables

  1. Drill and tap two 5/16 in-18 holes 3/4 in deep in a suitable grounding location on the outside of the unit case to attach the grounding ring terminals (3/8 in diameter terminal). One hole is for the junction box ground circle-a.png, and one is for the Remote Meter Point or Assurance Monitoring System ground circle-b.png.

  2. Cut the supplied grounding and signal cable to the appropriate length to run from the Shaft Grounding Assembly to the junction box.

  3. Cut the supplied 4-twisted-pair signal cable to the appropriate length to run from the junction box to the Remote Meter Point or Assurance Monitoring System.

  4. Run an 8 AWG conductor and an 18 AWG coaxial cable from the junction box and the Remote Meter Point or Assurance Monitoring System, respectively, to the unit case grounding ring terminals.

Shaft Grounding Assembly Cabling Requirements

  • Total ground conductor length from Shaft Grounding Assembly to unit case shall not exceed 47 ft (14.3 m).

  • Signal cable length from Shaft Grounding Assembly to monitoring system shall not exceed 30 ft (9.1 m).

  • Ground conductor shall not have any sharp bends or service loops anywhere in the run.
