4. INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
4.1 Site Selection
4.1.1 Consider the following when deciding on the location for the MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120
cabinet:
• Before construction begins, obtain the rights-of-way from landowners, and other permits
or approvals from public authorities. Place MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120 cabinets in
servitudes, on dedicated (recorded) easements, or on property owned by the company.
Avoid any unrecorded easements. If the cabinet is used in a rooftop application, additional
permits may apply.
• Use public safety road and street rights-of-way only when there is enough space to place
the closure and provide safe working conditions. The cabinet should be easily accessible
with adequate parking to ensure safety for people and vehicles. Place the cabinet where it
will not create a visual or physical obstruction to either vehicles or pedestrians.
• Select locations that will minimize accidental or intentional vandalism. Consider the use
of protective posts when the cabinet is located near parking areas where vehicles could
back into the cabinet.
• Accessibility: Place the cabinet at least 42 inches (106.68 cm) away from any obstruction,
fence, hedge, etc.
• If an area is subject to frost, choose a site free of heaving.
• Do not place the cabinet in ditches or areas subject flooding. Always locate the MESA®
cabinet on a site above the 100-year flood plain and not subject to water runoff or flash
flooding during heavy rains.
4.2 Concrete Foundation Pad
4.2.1 The MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120 cabinet is installed on a concrete foundation pad, which is
either cast-in-place or precast. A power transfer pedestal may also be installed on the pad or
mounted on a pole near the cabinet. Fig. 7 shows the generalposition of the cabinet and power
transfer pedestal on the concrete pad. Use concrete only for the foundation pad. Do not use
substitute materials, such as reinforced plastics, since they lack the rigidity required for cabinet
placement.
• Use a MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120 mounting template, part no. F1004239 (Fig. 9), to
orient the mounting bolts and access conduits in the pad. The template consists of
galvanized metal mounting plate with anchor bolts and support rails. A rubber gasket is
installed in two sections between the pad and the cabinet to prevent corrosion. If installing
a JuiceBox™ or other power transfer pedestal from Emerson Network Power on the pad,
use a separate template (Fig. 8).
• Order the power transfer template separately at the same time the engineering work order
is issued. The template(s) are ordered from Emerson Network Power Customer Service at
[phone].

• For excavated pad applications, excavate a hole for the pad and cable conduits in
accordance with the engineering work prints, generally to a depth of 30 inches (76.2 cm)
for standard applications and 60 inches (152.4 cm) for areas where there is heavy frost.
• Use a minimum of six inches (15.24 cm) of sand or gravel as a base for thefoundation pad.
This will level the location to accept the pad.
• Use a high-early strength concrete mix so the cabinet may be placed three days following
concrete pouring. Coarse aggregate used in the concrete shall be graded from 3/4-inch (1.9
cm) to No. 4 only.
• Fig. 10 shows the arrangement of the reinforcing mesh and the template in the form prior
to pouring concrete (without a power transfer pedestal).
• Power transfer pedestals may be mounted to the same pad as the MESA®6 NxT / Calix
ODC-120 cabinet, mounted to a separate pad, or mounted to a pole. Install the power
transfer pedestals according to the recommendations provided by the manufacturer. If
using a power transfer pedestal mounted to the pad, before pouringthe concrete, install the
template for the power pedestal into the main MESA®pad, located as shown in Fig. 7 &
Fig. 8.
• When using a pole-mounted power transfer switch, route the
1 3/4inch (4.45 cm) electrical conduit from the AC end chamber to a point beyond the pad
near the pole location.

4.3 Form Preparation
4.3.1 If the soil is not firm, compact it. For excavated pad applications, clear an area for the pad and
cable conduits in accordance with the engineering work prints. For a typical installation,
excavate the foundation hole to a depth of 12 to 16 inches (30.48 to 40.64 cm).
4.3.2 Construct a level base for the pad, using a minimum of six inches (15.2 cm) of sand or gravel.
The pad should be level to within 1/4-inch (6 mm) over the entire length and width.
4.3.3 Dig a trench to the area where the cable and electrical conduit will rise into the MESA®6 NxT
/ Calix ODC-120 cabinet (Fig. 10). Excavate the trenches to a depth of 30 inches (76.2 cm) for
a standard installation, and 60 inches (152.4 cm) for areas where there is heavy frost.
— If using a separate power transfer pedestal, dig a trench for the electrical conduit
going from the cabinet to the power transfer pedestal.
— If using a pole-mounted AC source, dig a trench for the electrical conduit from the
cabinet to the pole.

4.3.4 Place the conduits, cables, ground rod(s), and ground wire(s) as indicated on the engineering
work prints.
Note: At the splice chamber end, place the conduits to hold the four 4-inch (10.2 cm)
conduits in a 2-by-2 pattern. If required, at the power chamber end, place two
4-inch (10.2 cm) conduits side by side.
4.3.5 Install a ring groundsystemaround theproposed foundation pad according to local practices and
building safety codes.
4.3.6 Lay the MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120 template (Fig. 10) on the ground, placing it over the
conduits. Slip the conduits into the template holes to position them. Back fill and tamp the
trench to hold the conduit firmly in place.
Note: Be sure the conduit ends extending through the template are aligned vertically
(perpendicular to the template surface).
Note: The pad top surface should be approximately six inches (15.2 cm) above the
gravel base, and two inches (5.08 cm) above the final grade.
4.3.7 If a power transfer template will be mounted to the pad, place the power transfer template in one
corner of the pad. Route the 1 3/4-inch (4.45 cm) conduit from the AC end chamber side of the
cabinet template to the power transfer pedestal template. Remove the template. Backfill and
tamp the trench to hold the conduits in position.

CAUTION
Make certain the MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120 cabinet template is flat and levelto prevent
misalignment of cabinet doors.
4.3.12 Square and level the template(s) on the stakes so the tops of the mounting plates are flush with,
or no more than 1/4-in. (6 mm) above, the top of the pad (Fig. 11). Square the template(s) so
the diagonal measurement between the anchor bolts is equal.
Note: The cabinet must clear the finished concrete surface so that the base panel below
the cabinet end chamber can be removed.
4.3.13 The conduit should extend approximately two inches (5.08 cm) above the template (Fig. 11).
Cover the conduits at the top to keep concrete from entering them during the pour.
Note: Make sure the conduit ends extend vertically through the template (perpendicular
to the template surface).

4.3.15 Be sure that all the wire mesh or reinforcing bars are set approximately two inches (5.08 cm)
off the bottom of the form.
4.3.16 If required, use local practices to treat the area below the pad and for two feet (61 cm) around
the perimeter against insect infestation.
4.3.17 Use a high-early strength concrete mix so the cabinet may be placed three days following
concrete pouring. Coarse aggregate used in the concrete shall be graded from 3/4-in. (1.8 cm)
to No. 4 only. The compression strength of the concrete must be a minimum of 4000 psi as
determined by ASTM C39 test of compression strength of concrete cylinders.
4.3.18 Pour the concrete. Finish the concrete so that the entire surface is flush with or 1/4inch (6 mm)
below the top of the template mounting plates.
4.3.19 Cure the pad for a minimum of three days before cabinet installation, or according to the type
of concrete used and/or local practices.
4.4 Unpacking the Cabinet
4.4.1 MESA®6 NxT / Calix ODC-120 cabinets are shipped on wooden pallets with plastic covering
and corrugated cardboard to protect the cabinet during shipment.
