Connect Line Power Wiring
ETC recommends routing line (feeder) cables first, 
load neutral and load earth wires next, and load 
phase wires last. 
Preparing Line Feed Cable
Line cable and power wire should enter the rack 
through the designated top and bottom access 
points.
Line feed wires connect on the rack’s line phase, 
neutral and earth bus bars. Each bus bar has one or 
two 12mm studs to secure a lug connection for the 
line feed wires. The installer must provide the line 
feed connecting lugs.
Pull the line phase, neutral and earth cables to the 
rack through the openings you prepared previously. 
See “Rack Cabling Access” on page 11.
Step 1: Pull the line phase, Neutral and Earth 
cables to the rack through the openings 
you prepared previously.
Step 2: Cut the wires to length such that they 
reach the correct stud
Step 3: Prepare the end of the wire and fit the 
desired termination.
Step 4: Attach the lug to the correct phase, 
neutral or earth stud as shown in 
Figure 9: Line and Load Connections on 
page 12.
Step 5: Tighten the lugs to 59.5Nm.
CAUTION:
Line and load wires used with Sensor3 
dimming systems must be copper. Do not 
use wire containing aluminium or other 
metals.
CAUTION:
Dress wires neatly and avoid leaving extra 
wire inside the rack. Too much clutter 
(especially along the right side of the rack) 
can restrict air circulation and reduce 
cooling efficiency. If cabling interferes with 
airflow during operation, the rack may shut 
down due to overheating.
