Determining Your Type of
Input Power
System module
single point bond bar
Conduit/4-Wire Cable
Ground grid or
power distribution ground
Allen-Bradley PLCs
Before you ground or wire your 1394 system you must determine the
type of 360/480V input power you will be connecting to. The 1394
system is designed to operate in both grounded and ungrounded
environments.
Grounded Power Configuration
As shown in the figure below, the grounded power configuration
allows you to ground your 3-phase power at a neutral point. The 1394
system module has a factory-installed jumper configured for grounded
power distribution. If you determine that you have grounded power
distribution in your plant you do not need to modify your system.
