Installing and Removing the Shaft Grounding and Contact Ropes

This topic describes the installation and removal of the Shaft Grounding and Contact Ropes.

NOTE

When changing ropes at the Shaft Grounding Assembly online, always have one rope installed in the Rope Guide Assembly to maintain proper ground. Cutsforth recommends that workers do not change Shaft Contact Assembly (SCA) meter ropes while the generator is energized and/or operational.

Inserting a Rope

  1. Insert the rope into the rope guide (A), as shown in the following figure.

  2. With the rope fully inserted into the rope guide, push down on the rope grip (B) until it is fully seated in the Rope Guide Assembly (C).
