NOTE:

This section provides a high-level installation summary. For complete installation details, conduit layout drawings, strut rack specifications, and enclosure mounting dimensions, refer to the Electrical Signature Analysis Installation Planning Guide (EZDP-2148 Rev D).

Major Installation Steps

  1. Mount the ESA System enclosure at the planned location on the strut rack or wall.

  2. Install conduit between the ESA Monitoring System and each voltage bus pickup point.

  3. Install conduit between the ESA Monitoring System and each current sensor pickup point. Current sensor cables may share conduit provided it is appropriately sized; current sensor cables must not be combined with PT cables.

  4. Install conduit for 120/240 VAC power. Minimum circuit: 20 A, 120/240 VAC, free of non-linear loads. A circuit with isolated ground is recommended.

  5. Install conduit and wire for the data connection. Cutsforth recommends Cat6a or fiber (fiber requires a media converter).

  6. Connect the protective earth conductor per local electrical codes.

  7. Install wire for 120/240 VAC supply per local electrical codes.

  8. If required by local codes, install an external switch or circuit breaker near the equipment.
