Electrical Installation
Wire and Cable Access
•
Determine the wiring path through the option
panel enclosure. See the mechanical layout
drawing located on the inside cover of the
unit for locations to connect power and
motor wiring.
•
Removable access covers are provided for
cable connections (see Figure 3-8). Remove
access covers prior to drilling holes to
prevent metal shavings from damaging
internal electronic components.
•
For some units, access holes are provided
for input power, motor leads, and control
wiring.
•
Run input power, motor wiring, and control
wiring in three separate conduits for
isolation.

•
The drive always resides in the left-hand
panel when multiple panels are present.
•
Power connections are typically on the right-
side panel, or far right for tier 3 panel
configurations.
•
NEMA 12 enclosures available for additional
environmental protection.
•
Control wiring should be isolated from power
components inside the unit as much as
possible.
•
See the mechanical layout drawing on the
inside of the unit's panel and the connection
diagram supplied with the unit for connection
details.
