How to Install Middle Atlantic MPR Module, 30 A, Twistlock, L5-30R, Hardwired
- Before you begin, power off the equipment and verify that the MPR raceway is de-energized. Confirm compatibility with your existing MPR Series components and plan the module’s placement within the rack layout for optimal cable management.
- Remove the module enclosure or access panel as required by your MPR system instructions. Ensure you have all necessary mounting hardware and strain-relief components aligned with the module’s mounting points.
- Connect the hardwired input lead to the distribution circuit using appropriately rated conductors. Route the input cable through the strain-relief to protect against movement, tension, and flexing that could compromise the connection.
- Mount the MPR Module into the MPR raceway slot, aligning it with the system’s standard mounting pattern. Secure the module to the raceway using the provided fasteners, ensuring a snug, vibration-resistant fit.
- Attach the NEMA L5-30R twist-lock receptacle to the module’s output. Confirm that the receptacle aligns properly with the raceway surface and that the twist-lock connector engages smoothly without binding.
- Re-inspect all electrical connections and tighten any loose fittings. Reinstall any access panels or covers according to the MPR system guidelines. Power on the system and test the receptacle by connecting a compatible load to verify proper operation and lock engagement.
- Document the installation details for maintenance and inspections. Label the circuit, record the module’s location in the MPR configuration, and store any warranty or part information for future reference.
