Ground Bus
1. See Figure 40 to determine the correct ground splice configuration and
assemble as shown.
2. Torque the hardware to 15 N•m ± 1 N•m (12 lb•ft ± 1 lb•ft).
3. Check all hardware for correct tightness and replace all covers and plates.

Incoming Line Cable
Connections
Incoming cables are connected to the power bus in the last section on the left.
1. Remove the center-back plate or side plate to access the power bus. If access
to the rear of the unit is not possible, refer to Access to the Power Bus
on
page 9 of Chapter 2 for either standard or ArcShield enclosures.
2. Connect the incoming power lines to the power bus. Torque to
specifications (refer to Recommended Torque Values
on page 3 of
Chapter 1) (see Figure 41).

ATTENTION: Ensure all barriers are replaced before re-energizing the
equipment. Failure to do so may result in electrical faults and cause damage to
equipment or severe injury to personnel.
ATTENTION: To avoid shock hazards, lock out incoming power (refer to Power
Lock-out Procedure on page 47 of Chapter 5) before working on the equipment.
Verify with a hot stick or appropriate voltage measuring device that all circuits
are voltage free. Failure to do so may result in severe burns, injury or death.
IMPORTANT
For Non-ArcShield units, cable size should not exceed 1-750 MCM or
2-500 MCM per phase.
For ArcShield units, cable size should not exceed 1-500 MCM or 2-4/0 per
phase. For larger cables, an incoming line module must be used.
