02/05/2018 INSTALLATION GUIDELINES Electrical Terminations 1. Local commercial power (120/240VAC) 1P 3 wire 30A is wired to Battery Backup Panel (BBP) at MAIN CB-1 (L1 –L2, Neutral - Ground). 2. BBP transfers power to Barrier Control Panel (BCP) MAIN Disconnect Switch. 3.
2.4.5.1 Installation of Shielded Ethernet Cable from Barrier to Barrier Control Panel (BCP) • Shielded Ethernet cable is provided by RSSI and rolled up inside unit. The cable is terminated inside at Servo Drive using the TIA/EIA 568A wiring on the RJ45. This wire will need to be ran through Control J-Box and Controls conduit back to the BCP.
Page 13
02/05/2018 INSTALLATION GUIDELINES • Once termination has been made, plug the cable into the Ethernet Switch. Figure 2-10, EPU Ethernet Switch • Connect Ethernet shield wire to (Earth Ground) on top of switch at pin #4. If metal RJ45 is used, no grounding is required.
