Page 8: Installation
Notice that L1, Neutral & Ground are labeled on each diagram. Those transformer outputs correspond to the same inputs on the ACS. Also, each of the two 3- phase diagrams shows an L2 and an L3 output, which are not used. Do not connect more than one phase of a 3-phase secondary to the ACS. - Page 9 ACS User’s Manual The Neutral at the service panel must be connected to earth ground somewhere in the system on any of the three connection arrangements. Ground-fault protection is not possible unless the Neutral (center-tap on the service trans- former) is connected to an earth ground. If no ground is provided by the electrical service, a grounding stake must be driven into the ground nearby, following local electrical codes.
- Page 10 With a wye-connected secondary, any one of the three legs, in addition Note to neutral, can be used to provide 120V to the ACS. For example, L1 & Neutral, L2 & Neutral, or L3 & Neutral. Be sure the center point is grounded to earth somewhere in the system.
