5.

 

To install the power and ground wires, run the power and ground cables 
inside conduit through the 7/8” access hole in the bottom of the enclosure 
to the inside of the enclosure.  The 7/8” hole will accommodate 1/2” 
conduit.  Leave enough slack to extend the cables to their respective 
terminal lugs.  Remove enough of the insulation at the end of the wire or 
cable to be able to make the connection into their respective terminal lugs. 

 

6.

 

At this time, connect the power and ground wires to their respective 
terminal lugs inside the enclosure.  Refer to Figure 5.  Once the power 
and ground wires have been connected securely inside the enclosure, 
seal the access hole so that no ambient air can get inside the enclosure.  
If desired, first seal the hole and then connect the wires.

Two breathers are located on the enclosure, one on either side, as shown 
back in Figure 4 of this appendix.  They allow air into the enclosure.  Do 
not remove the breather caps.  They are specially designed to let air into 
the enclosure, while preventing water and dust entry.  Turn the breather 
caps clockwise at this time just to make sure they are properly seated.
