Chapter 2 – Receiving, Handling & Storage

Receiving
Before leaving the factory, the motor control center is
given a final mechanical and electrical inspection and
is packed in accordance with the best practices for
electrical equipment.

On receipt of any apparatus, make an immediate

inspection for any damage or loss of equipment in
transit. Should damage or missing material be noted,
file a claim immediately with the carrier and notify the
nearest office of the General Electric Company. Figure 5. Positioning the MCC with rollers
Information such as a description of the damage, the
shipping crate numbers, the requisition numbers and
the panel catalog number should accompany the claim. Storage
If it is necessary to store the equipment for any length
of time, be sure to observe the following precautions:
Handling • Uncrate the equipment.
Control center sections are always shipped in an upright • Store the equipment in a clean, dry, humidity-controlled
position, in single or group sections. Sections must be area at moderate temperature. Cover with a suitable

Chapter 3 – Installation

Before any installation work is begun, consult all

drawings furnished by the General Electric Company
as well as all applicable contract drawings for the
particular installation. Pay particular attention to the
location of units in the motor control center and their
relations to existing or planned conduits and busways.

Installation of Bottom Entry Conduits

Conduits can be stubbed in after the location of the
motor control center lineup has been established. Conduit
should be stubbed approximately 2 inches (51mm)
above the finished floor line. Figure 6 and Figure 7 show Figure 6C. Bottom conduit entrance for standard 20-inch deep

standard sections. Exceptions to this available space rule
are indicated on drawings furnished by GE for specific
installations. Center the conduit beneath the section
vertical wireway to facilitate direct cable entry. Note:
Bottom rear entrance should only be used with full
rear accessibility.

Surface under motor control center base must

be of non-combustible material unless bottom
covers are installed in each vertical section.

The overall height of the equipment should be considered

with respect to headroom, top conduit entry space and
alignment with other equipment.

they must be located according to the drawings furnished
by GE for the specific equipment. For 13-inch (330.2
mm) deep vertical sections, anchor bolts or some form
of external bracing is required. Anchor bolts should be
1/2-inch diameter of Grade 2 steel (minimum).

If there are vertical sections of varying depths

(such as 13, 20, or 22 inches) in a single lineup,
the fronts of the sections must be lined up for
proper alignment of the main bus bars.

space available for conduit entry), 6-inch bottom cover.

Preparation of Flooring
For most installations, the MCC floor sills can rest on the
finished floor. The foundation for the equipment should
be level and even. Although not normally required, the
purchaser may elect to install, level and grout the steel
members or MCC floor sills in the floor, as illustrated in
Figure 8 and Figure 9. If the floor sills are removed, lifting
and moving the shipping sections must be done carefully.

Figure 9. Installing steel floor members

Note the front alignment of the 13-inch-deep section

Positioning and Joining Sections

If groups of sections are to be joined together in a final
lineup, remove the end cover plates and the plug buttons,
from the sides of the sections to be joined. Figure 10
shows the side views, with the end cover plates
removed, for 20-inch-deep sections with 2-inch (50.8

Note: Cannot be rolled (as in Figure 5) without floor sills Carefully check and remove dirt, dust or bits of packing
material from the interior of all sections. Use a brush,
soft cloth or vacuum cleaner.

Evolution Series E9000 Installation & Maintenance Guide

Do not use compressed air to clean the equipment

if it contains moisture. Remove all hardware pack-
ages, drawings and other items shipped with the
equipment. Check all nuts, bolts, and electrical joints
for tightness.

All cables entering the bottoms of sections should be

pulled through conduits to a point where they will be
accessible after the equipment is in place. Sections can
be moved to their final position and properly leveled.

Main, neutral and ground bus splice bars (with all asso-
ciated hardware) are furnished, as necessary, to join
sections together. They are located in the first section to
the right of the joint. See Figures 13, 14 and 15 for approxi-
mate dimensions for main, neutral, and ground bus.

Remove the top Lexan barrier, as shown in Figure 11 and

Figure 12, to access the main bus. Refer to instruction
drawings in splice kit. See Table 2.

After the motor control center is in place and leveled, and
the sections are joined together, conduits can be brought
into the tops of sections as required. Figure 15 and

live parts across from each other. The voltages to ground
consist of two groups: 0 to 150 and 151 to 600, inclusive.
Remember, where an ungrounded system is utilized, the
voltage to ground will be the greatest voltage between
the given conductor and any other conductor of the
circuit. For example, the voltage to ground for a 480-
volt ungrounded delta system is 480 volts.

See Figure 14 for general working clearance requirements.

Distances are measured from the live parts if the live Figure 15. Top conduit entry space for 13-inch sections

parts are enclosed. If any assemblies, such as switch-
boards or motor control centers, are accessible from the

OFF position with as many as three padlocks, as shown
in Figure 30. The handle can also be drilled to accommo-
date one padlock to secure it in the ON position. In
either case, the unit cannot be withdrawn because of
interference between the padlock(s) and door.
