input. The AC wiring, from the AC input terminal block connections to the hot-pluggable AC input connector for each rectifier, is factory installed.

The AC input enclosure, located at the top rear of the MX28B rectifier bay, is provided with nine

¼-inch pilot holes in the top plate. Remove the ac input enclosure from the box frame in order to punch or drill the appropriate number of conduit openings for the conduit size(s) desired. Do not leave the ac input enclosure in place when punching or drilling holes in order to prevent metal pieces from falling into the power system.

AC wiring passing through the conduit will be routed through the access opening in the ac input enclosure into the vertical wiring channel where safety ground bar and rectifier input terminal blocks are located. The terminal block(s) is labeled as Rectifier 1 through Rectifier 4 with each position having inputs designated “L1” and “L2/N” for connection of the two ac wires Figure 3.3-1.Each terminal block represents connections for one shelf, with positions 1 through 4 corresponding to the rectifier shelf positions numbered from left to right as viewed from the front.

The suggested wire size is #10 AWG rated at 90°C or higher; however, the ambient temperature and number of wires in a conduit must also be considered in accordance with NEC requirements. It is suggested that feeds for four rectifiers (8 wires) and one safety ground wire be run in a one-inch conduit; however, be sure to follow any local electrical wiring codes.
