Installation and Operation Manual
GROUND CONNECTIONS:
Best practices recommend all ground wires should be #6 AWG size wire, or larger. Grounding rods should be least 6 feet long,
copper clad or galvanized steel, approved for grounding applications and driven into good conducting soil. All grounds should be
connected together with a solid bus bar similar to those shown in figure A3-4 and A3-5. See Figure A3-2 for the location of the
collector ground connection. A dedicated ground lug is supplied on the tower top unit to facilitate its grounding as shown in
Figure A3-3. The collector grounding system should be installed by certified, professional personnel and comply with applicable
NEC and local codes and laws.
The MNC and TTU ground nuts should be torqued to 20 in-lbs.
