LOCATION
The rack should be installed on an industrial grade floor with sufficient load capacity to support it. For rack weights and dimensions,
see "Specifications" on page 51. The room must be dry and must have sufficient volume to allow exhaust air to circulate and cool. If
an undersized room is used, it must have air handling which is adequate to maintain the specified ambient temperature range (see
"Specifications" on page 51).
WARIG! Rated for indoor use only.
CLEARANCES
The rack must have a minimum of 18 inches of clear space above it for exhaust air and a minimum of 36 inches of clear floor space
in front of it. Single racks or the right-most rack of bused racks require 2 inches of space to the right. See Figure 1 on next page for
rack clearances. Refer to the National Electrical Code® and local electrical codes to determine whether additional clearance around
the rack is required.
ROUTE LINE AND LOAD WIRING
Line Power wiring may enter the rack through removable plates on the top or bottom. See Figure 1 on next page.
ROUTE CONTROL WIRING
DMX512 and/or Ethernet control wiring may enter the rack through knockouts in the top or bottom of the rack. Please note that the
low-voltage wiring compartment is located at the top of the rack. If control wiring enters the rack through the bottom, it may be run
through either of the hollow sides of the rack to the top compartment. See "Control Wiring" on page 21 for details.
Control wires may also enter through side knockouts (see Figure 12 for knockout placement.) Load and Line wires should always
enter the dimmer rack through a knockout via conduit. Check your local electrical code for more information.
You must have access to a main circuit breaker or other power disconnect device before installing any wiring. Failure to disconnect
power before installing or servicing your dimmer rack may result in injury or death.

CONNECTION ORDER
The Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Rack is designed to be wired from the front. For this reason it makes sense to complete the connec-
tions at the back of the rack first, and the ones at the front last. We recommend connecting the Line Power wiring and Grounds (if
applicable) first, and the Load Neutral and Load Hot wires last.
Important: Dress wires neatly. Extra wire inside the rack can restrict airflow.
CONNECTING LINE POWER WIRING (SINGLE RACKS )
You must have access to a main circuit breaker or other power disconnect device before installing any wiring.
Failure to disconnect power before installing or servicing your dimmer rack may result in injury or death.
1. Run line power wiring from the power source to the top or bottom of the rack. See "Mechanical Considerations" on page 4 for
feed routing.
2. Remove the wire access panel (Figure 16).
3. Punch holes and install conduit fittings <OR> insert lining materials in the access panel opening.
4. Replace the wire access panel if using conduit.
5. Pull the line power cables through the prepared openings.
: Wire openings must have fittings or linings to protect wire and cable insulation and to prevent air leaks.
6. Strip 1-3/8" of insulation from the end of each cable.
7. Terminate the Phase, Neutral, and Ground wires to their lugs. Line connections are labeled A, B and C (Figure 16). If necessary,
the main lugs may be re-oriented for the direction of feed.
8. Tighten the main lug set screws to the torque termination shown on the label inside the right wall of the rack (shown in part
below).

IGBT DIMMER RACKS Installation
& Operation
Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Racks may be bused together using the optional busing kit. To bus racks, you will need to remove the pan-
els as described below before the racks are bolted together or secured to a wall.
To bus two or more racks together:
1. Determine which panels need to be removed. (Example: If you are busing two racks, the panel on the right side of the left-hand rack
and the panel on the left side of the right-hand rack need to be removed.)
2. Remove the eight screws as shown in Figure 17 from each panel you are removing. Save these screws - you will need them in Step
8. Remove the panels and properly recycle the material.
3. Level the racks and bolt them together (see "Mounting Several Racks Together" on page 12).
4. Remove the phase lugs from the rack(s) that will not be fed from the main.
5. Loosely attach the phase A, B, and C bus bars as shown in Figure 18. Leave hardware loose until all bus bars are in place.
6. Loosely attach the Neutral bus bar as shown in Figure 18.
7. Tighten all bolts.
8. Insert the plastic rack divider (Figure 17) between the two racks. Attach it to the left-hand rack using the eight screws and screw
holes from Step 2.
: Do not operate bused racks without the plastic divider in place. Air leaks can inhibit rack ventilation, causing
dimmers to overheat and shut down.

IGBT DIMMER RACKS Installation
& Operation
To connect load wiring:
1. Run load wiring to the top or bottom of the rack. If your rack has the optional Ground Bus, separate the load ground wires and route
them to this bus.
ote: Load wires should not be fed through the sides of the enclosure.
2. If you have ground wires from your loads, strip 3/8" of insulation from them and connect using the torque values shown in the table
at right.
3. Separate the load neutral wires and route them to the load neutral terminals located on the neutral bus bar in the center of the rack
(see Figure 2 on page 6). Strip 3/8” of insulation from the wires and terminate them using the torque values in the table below.
CAUTIO: Use a separate wire for each neutral. Do not use common neutrals.
4. Route the load hot wires to their individual connections. The load hot terminals are located on the dimmer back plane on the left
side of the rack (see Figure 2 on page 6 and Figure 19 on the following page). If the load wires are top fed, work from top to bot-
tom on the dimmer back plane as you connect the hots for each circuit in turn. If they are bottom fed, work from the bottom up.
Important: Follow the circuit numbers printed on the load terminal connectors. The load terminals are not sequential from top to bot-
tom! When wiring more than one rack, remember to add 96 to the numbers in the second rack, 192 to the third, etc.
5. Strip 3/8" of insulation from the load wires. Do not exceed the bend radius shown in Figure 19 when inserting load wires.
6. Tighten all terminations to the torque values shown in the table below.
7. Dress load wires to the back of the rack.
