Section9.ConsultallspecicequipmentdrawingsfurnishedbyPostGloverResistors,Inc.,foryourparticular
installation.
3.1 Receiving
Once received, the crated high-resistance grounding unit should be unloaded and carefully moved by overhead
crane or forklift. A preliminary inspection of the crate should be made at this point to ensure that the unit was
handledproperlyduringshipment.Ifdamageisdetected,contactthecarrierimmediatelytoleaclaim.
3.2 Handling
Free-standing units have removable lifting angles for an overhead crane to use when moving the unit. Do not
attempt to move or lift the unit at points other than the lifting angles or base channels. Never store the unit on its
side or top as this could cause damage. Do not stack the units.
3.3 Storage
If the unit will be stored for some length of time, take the following precautions:
1. Remove the crate and thoroughly inspect the unit.
2. Store the unit in an area that is clean and dry and has moderate temperatures. Cover it with a heavy-duty
plastic cover or cloth.
3. If the unit must be stored in a damp area, it should be completely covered and heat provided to prevent
condensation of moisture in the unit. If space heaters are supplied with the unit, they must be turned on.
Otherwise, to prevent condensation, each unit should be equipped with 150-200 watts of heat for the
duration of the storage period.
3.4 Floor Preparation
Theequipmentfoundationmustbedesignedwithsuitablestrengthandlevelness.Sufcientheightshouldbe
allowed above the unit to allow conduit to enter at the top of the unit. The purchaser is responsible for anchoring
theunittotheoorwithanchorsofsuitablestrength.
3.5 Grounding… CAUTION!
To reduce the possibility of electric shock, the unit must be properly grounded before making any system power
connections. Connect the system ground to the ground bus. The ground bus is located in the lower portion of the
free-standing units. For the wall-mount units, ground bus is located on the back panel. Make sure that all ground
conductorsaresizedpertheNationalElectricalCode(NFPA70).
