3. Electrical Installation
Introduction
This section of the manual covers the electrical installation of your GSI electronically controlled distributor
and controller assembly. If your installation is an electronic controller retrofit being installed on an existing
GSI distributor, please begin with Section 6, Retrofit Installation on Page 40 and return to this section after
completion of mechanical component installation.
Wire and Fitting Selection Requirements
NOTE: The Sensor and VFD cables are supplied in 50' increments for a maximum length of 400'.
The Sensor cable has one unterminated end and one end has a connector. The VFD cable is
unterminated at both ends.
All sensor wiring should be run in its own conduit and this conduit should be kept at least 6" away from
other conduits. Any drain wires from shielded cable should be connected to ground in the panel.
VFD wiring should be run through appropriate conduit and the wiring for the motor must not be run in the
same conduit as the wiring for the sensors.
All conduit and fittings should be outdoor rated to keep things adequately sealed, rigid conduit
is required.
These shielding and conduit requirements must be followed for your GSI Electric Distributor Controller
to function properly. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in damage to equipment or
improper operation.

Conduit for motor wiring should be run out of enclosure (DEC0005) (A) to the panel installed at ground
level. Conduit for sensor wiring should be run from enc losure (DEC0005) (A) to pan el installed at ground
level. Appropriate fittings for conduit selection must be used at all connections. (See Figure 3B.)

Motor Cable to Motor Junction Box Fitting Connections
Remove the four (4) motor junction box cover screws (C) and the motor junction box cover (A) as shown
in Figure 3C.
Pull motor wiring through conduit to enclosure and feed to motor junction box (B) and through provided
cord grip. Motor wiring should be routed within the enclosure to avoid close proximity to all sensor wiring.
Motor wiring should be kept at least 4" from any sensor wires. (See Figure 3C.)
Figure 3C Cable fitting connection to motor junction box.
The electric motor supplied with the GSI Electronic Distributor Control system is designed to be capable
of running on either low or high voltage. The variable frequency drive (VFD) supplied with the system
supplies 230V 3 phase power and requires that the electric motor be configured for low volta ge operation.
In order to ensure proper operation, verify the motor jumpers are configured in accordance with the wiring
diagram shown for low voltage operation. (See Figure 3D.)

Once all wiring is complete, install the two (2) side access covers (DEC0012) (A) using four (4)
1/4"-20 x 3/4" HHCS bolts (S-1429) (D) and 1/4" lock washer (S-2041) (C) each and install the bottom
enclosure cover (DEC0013) (B) using ten (10) 1/4"-20 x 3/4" HHCS bolts (S-1429) (D) and 1/4" lock
washers (S-2041) (C) as shown in Figure 3G. Ensure that no wires are pinched or damaged when
installing access covers.
The following requirements must be followed when installing and mounting the control panel:
All wiring should be performed by a licensed/qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electric
Code (NEC), state codes and local codes.
Never mount the control panel immediately beside or above heat generating equipment or directly below
water or steam pipes.
The atmosphere surrounding the control panel must be free of combustible vapors, chemical fumes and
corrosive materials.
The control panel must be easily accessible for maintenance and operation.
Mount the control panel on a flat, vertical surface using 1/4" fasteners.
Ensure that the mounting surface is sufficient to support the weight of the control panel.
Rigid conduit connections must be placed either at sides or bottom of the control panel.

Electric Motor Connections at Control Panel
Connect the motor wiring to the terminals on the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) in the control panel
as shown in Figure 3H. Please note that the U-V-W order of the wires is not configured as labeled on
the VFD. Motor wiring should be kept as far away from sensor wiring terminal blocks as the installation
configuration permits.
