External Control Wire Connections

All wires entering or exiting the switchgear assembly must be
enclosed in a conduit. Sealing compound may be used, if
desired. Floor plates are provided as standard.
For external control wiring (Figure 4.3) connection point
locations, reference the GE drawings provided for the specific
section and location within the equipment. Each section of
switchgear can be provided with up to two control wire
termination troughs (Figure 3.27). Figure 4.3 depicts a typical
location for the cable entry of these control cables. Connect
the control wires to the switchgear section as follows:
1.
When control conduits enter the switchgear from
below, they should not extend more than one inch
above the floor. The control wires may be pulled
through the conduits before or after the switchgear
is installed.

2.
Route the control wires from the conduits through
the wiring trough (cross-hatched area- 2" x 7"-shown
on Figure 4.3) at the side of the cable compartment.
Connect the cables to the terminal blocks in
accordance with the connection diagrams for the
equipment.
3.
If the control conduits enter from above, drill the top
cover within the available space indicated (Figure
4.3). Control wires should be routed to the wiring
trough and connected to the terminal blocks as
described previously.
