2 Installing the SAMMS-LV Device

2.4.2 Grounding the Device

As stated in Guideline 5, ground each motor controller at a single ground point. The grounding path to earth must be permanent and continuous. It must also be able to safely conduct ground fault currents that may occur in the system to ground through minimum impedance. The earth ground does not carry any current under normal conditions.

Connect a ground bus to the chassis of each controller or to the chassis of the mounting equipment containing the earth ground through a grounding conductor.

Refer to Article 250 of the National Electrical Code for informa- tion about the types and sizes of wire conductors and methods for safely grounding electrical equipment and components.

Note: Do not ground the SAMMS auxiliary current sensor (ACT) leads. (See figure 2.1.)

2.4.3Connecting the Device to a Control Power Source

The SAMMS-LV device requires a 12 VAC control power source in order to operate. Connect the control power source to terminals 5 and 6 located on the top of the relay.

2.4.4Connecting Input and Output Devices to the SAMMS-LV Device

Connect your devices to the input and output connections on the SAMMS-LV device as illustrated in Figure 2.2.

2.4.5 Communications Connection

The SAMMS-LV device is equipped with an RS-485 commu- nications port on the back of the device. The communications port allows connection to a communications module which
