Rack Assembly

Labelling the terminal blocks

Each rack is equipped with (1) terminal block assembly. The left (+) and right (-) segments of each terminal block must be appropriately labelled.

1.Remove the snap-off cover from the front face of each terminal block.

2.Apply two “terminal block” stickers from supplied labels to the partitions on the sides of each terminal block.

Apply the BAT 1+ (on the left) and BAT 1- (on the right) stickers to the Rack #1 terminal block (Terminal Block #1), and the BAT 2+ (on the left) and BAT 2- (on the right) stickers to the Rack #2 terminal block (Terminal Block #2).

Employing sidecars to support separated racks

When battery racks are situated apart from their respective battery breakers, sidecars should be employed to enhance connectivity between the batteries and the breakers.

Note

If racks are NOT separated and sidecars are NOT used, proceed to the next section below. If racks ARE separated and sidecars ARE used, disregard the next section and proceed instead to “Appendix C: Employing Sidecars” on page 44.
