The following does not apply to the rack-mount model (RM) or the shelf-mount
model (SM) which plug into a receptacle in the rack or enclosure. The APL model is
connected to the utility power via the APL’s terminal block (Photo 2.7.1.b).
Utility power enters the enclosure through a 0.875” diameter opening at the bottom
of the APC enclosure (Photo 2.7.1.c). The enclosure accepts a standard conduit
fitting. When used in conjunction with the PED-M metered, ground-mount
enclosure, utility power enters through a dedicated raceway.

2.7.1.1 Procedure: (120VAC, 60 HZ) Photo 2.7.1.1
If the Modular Transformer Assembly (MTA) is installed it must be completely
removed during utility wiring. To remove the transformer assembly, loosen the
captive screw on the bottom of the baseplate and remove the transformer assembly.
1. Loosen the two captive screws securing the receptacle box. Turn the
receptacle box over to expose the internal wiring.
2. Route the utility conduit through the 0.875” diameter opening located at the
bottom of the APC. Secure the fitting with a locknut.
3. Connect the utility BLACK-HOT wire (120 VAC; 60 Hz) to the BLACK wire
inside the receptacle box using the existing wire nut.
4. Connect the WHITE-NEUTRAL wire to the WHITE wire inside the
receptacle box using the existing wire nut.
