Question - MEP-003 - Incorporating Ground From Lug on Chassis Into 4-Conductor Cable

[Zadvark]

Trying to get the installation arapped up on a trailer mounted 003A. The electrician came into the right side of the connection box with a strain relief to run the cable through. running the cable this way, is there a neat way to tie the grounding wire in the cable budle down to the grounding lug at the bottom of the chassis? Evidently some folks don't like the wires dropping out of the box without a strain relief. My game plan was to primarily use this as a house backup with the option of using it in the field as an SDS should the need arise. The other end of the cable terminates into a Pass & Seymour pin and sleeve plug.

Yes, I' have read all the other posts and will not be grounding it through a rod when it's hooked up to the house but will use a grounding rod when it's in stand-alone mode.

Thanks to all in advance.

The devil is in the details. I think I found my answer in thread http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showth...e-of-your-MEP-terminal-hook-up-to-house/page3, reply #24, picture #5. I should be able to sneak the ground wire out and lug it to one of the bolts below the connection box.

I did it again, always trying to over think the problem.

I am no expert but there are people here who are. You have two completely different setups as I understand it. I am not going to go into detail so I don't cause confusion but I am sure someone will chime in.

There is a lot of information in the sticky at the top of the page. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?40290-MEP-003A-hook-up-question
