How to wire 3 phase unit and disconnect on a roof

Possibly one of the best videos ever. Great explanation you nailed it. “To teach is to learn again”

Good work dude thanks for the refresher course

Love your work.

This dude is an animal he’s over here promoting dewalt while humbly admitting Milwaukee is good as he drinks a body armor and throws it on the ground this dude is a savage.

I was sitting here eating my sugarless gummy bears. The flavor was a tad off but I thought maybe I was losing my tastebuds because of the 'Rona. Suddenly, I had a massive case of BG's. For you that don't know. Thats the bubble guts. I rushed to the closest restroom to relieve myself, unable to make it in time. With liquid doo-doo oozing out of my pant legs I finished the last 40 yards to the restroom, at a speed that I could qualify for the NFL. As I sat here crying internally in quite shame and pain, I suddenly came across this video. Thank you. Thank you for making me forget that I dont have a change of underwear and am no where close to my house.

Nice work

I always use plastic bushings on connectors.

This is so interresting!

Thank you.

[@robertmartin5167]

I like your video every much , it is very informative to me .where the disconnect is install on strut ,do you bolt it to the roof . Can you make more video like this

[@rippleaffect1698]

It's sitting on roof boots so it doesn't damage the roof membrane.

[@adriansangerman3491]

Is a grounding bushing required?

[@nobodydummy12345]

Of your using reducing washers you need bonding bushings on your seal tight connections yo!

[@rippleaffect1698]

Hey David thanks for your response, You have a great point but in this instance in this location I am code compliant the reducing washers we used were ul listed and we had no concentric rings. 250.97 EX. 4 From UL GROUNDING Metal reducing washers are considered suitable for grounding for use in circuits over and under 250 V and where installed in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70, "National Electrical Code." Reducing washers are intended for use with metal enclosures having a minimum thickness of 0.053 in. for non-service conductors only. Reducing washers may be installed in enclosures provided with concentric or eccentric knockouts, only after all of the concentric and eccentric rings have been removed. However, those enclosures containing concentric and eccentric knockouts that have been Listed for bonding purposes may be used with reducing washers without all knockouts being removed. But it is a good practice to put them on everything when dealing with 480V especially when outdoors.

Guys don't cut towards yourself because if you slip you get cut, better to cut away from yourself

[@AlexMartinez-dc4pe]

Plastci bushings missing at connectors, everything else good.

[@rippleaffect1698]

Nec. Section 300.4(f) only needs bushings for wire 4 awg and larger but it doesn't hurt to put them on all the time good catch but my wire size is in the parameters to not require one.

[@willengram7091]

Must’ve missed the 1” and larger pipe.

[@tonyn7168]

im from Canada and its exactly the same way we do it, except our colours for the 3 phases are different

[@rippleaffect1698]

Thanks for the comment! Is your voltage the same 277..480

[@tonyn7168]

Nope, it’s typically 347/600 and 120/208

[@rippleaffect1698]

So 120 208 is common here but I'm interested on how your working with 347/600 is that considered your industrial type panels for factories and plants?

[@tonyn7168]

@@rippleaffect1698 yep our warehouses, factories, oil refineries, even some office towers are all 347/600. I have yet to seen 277/480

[@rippleaffect1698]

So can you explain it a little like from the transformer to the panel you dont have to but I'm curious

[@nathanbecker2222]

Did you have any Problem connecting a 480 WYE Hi to a 208 WYE Lo color code?

[@sylvesterstewart868]

How is your Unislut racking secured to the roof? Would love to see the transformer.

[@rippleaffect1698]

Its built on roof boots.. Heavy rubber with strut bolted to the top

[@sylvesterstewart868]

@@rippleaffect1698 Interesting, I really enjoyed watching you wire that AC unit. You remind me of a dude I did solar with.

[@rippleaffect1698]

Thank you

[@nomadismileseeker6611]

Could you adapt this to interrupt for a 240v 4 wire plug? Like from a generator?

[@rippleaffect1698]

Not for this application because it is 480v

[@mv8771]

If the source wiring is coming from the panel with a breaker, then the disconnect would be non-fused for a 220v, single phase system for an HVAC unit?

[@henryhenry271]

no torquing?

[@ehongrobles9159]

[@Gamer-Family76]

Hi there I was wondering if you could give me some info How can you take a 3 phase meter Box remove it and replace it with a single phase meter Box

[@rippleaffect1698]

Need some more info are you replacing a panel from 3 phase to single phase? Or just replacing a meter but keeping the 3 phase panel

[@nicholasaguilar6285]

FOUND YOU BOI

[@Flipping_Assets]

How do I ground a wire on a 3 phase 3 fuse electrical disconnect box if I'm hooking up a 3 wire welder outlet?

[@rippleaffect1698]

Look Into the NEC code book section 250

[@anthonypicozzi4414]

You don't need to pull a neutral ??

[@rippleaffect1698]

No sir, it's not required for this air unit.

[@robanderson4137]

I don't understand why there's no neutral white wire? Ya I'm a newb, just tryin to understand 3 phase

[@rippleaffect1698]

It's a 480v motor that is being powered so it doesn't require a neutral.. Also if a 277v 480v system did need a neutral it would be grey, white is standard in the u.s. for low voltage systems such as 120v 208v

[@robanderson4137]

@@rippleaffect1698 Thanks for the info...I work in an office building with three phase 277 and 120 possibly 480...not sure. I'm just working with LED lights and stuff but it's all different from residential.
