If there are multiple BCB boxes, secure the other BCB boxes to the battery rack. 

----End 

3.4 Connecting Cables 

 

 

The following uses PDU8000-0250DCV8-BXA001 as an example. 

3.4.1 Installing a PE Cable 

Step 1

 

Open the door of the BCB box, and remove the isolation board. 

 

To keep the door open during operations, insert a support bar between the door and the BCB box. 

Step 2

 

Remove the top and bottom panels. 

Step 3

 

Take out rodent-proof meshes from the fitting bag, and use diagonal pliers to cut out cable 
holes on them based on the number and specifications of cables. Then install the rodent-proof 
meshes onto the BCB box. 

Figure 3-7

 

Rodent-proof meshes 

 

 

(1) Rodent-proof mesh 

 

 

If rodent-proof meshes are used, route cables through the cable holes on the meshes. Skip this step when 
rodent-proof meshes are not required. Drill cable holes on the top and bottom panels. 

Step 4

 

Ground the BCB box.
