Install Joining Hardware—Seismic Installation Frames 10…15

If equipment is delivered in sections, use the standard frame clamps to connect the enclosures together. Discard the standard top bracket sets and install the clamps from the seismic kit. Each kit includes parts for the largest possible enclosure lineup for frame size. Therefore, in some cases, not all parts in the kit are installed.
  1. Install the top bracket sets to each of the cabinet seams.
    Verify that the cabinets are aligned, level, and pushed together tightly at the shipping splits.
    IMPORTANT: Install top bracket sets at all cabinet seams front and back.
    IMPORTANT: The paint-piercing rubber washers are required for both grounding purposes and to meet the enclosure rating.
  2. Install the bolts that join the two angle brackets and tighten.
  3. Install the interior frame clamps.
  4. Tighten the interior frame clamps.
    IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to lift enclosures that are joined with this hardware.
