Notes:
•
The use of 600 V minimum rated motor cable is required.
•
SubDrive models show cable lengths for highest power motor supported by each model. Refer
to the Franklin Electric AIM Manual when using a smaller motor.
•
Maximum allowable wire lengths are measured between the controller and motor.
•
Flat-jacketed submersible motor cable is recommended. All splices in the motor cable must be
properly sealed with watertight shrink tubing. Use extreme caution to avoid damaging or
compromising the motor cable insulation during installation or service.
Conduit Locations and Sizing
Use appropriate strain relief or conduit connectors.
1. Incoming power supply—Hole = 0.88 in. (22.2 mm), Knockout = 1.13 in. (28.6 mm)
2. Power output to motor—Hole = 1.13 in (28.6 mm), Knockout = 1.37 in. (34.9 mm)
3. Control wiring (transducer/sensor) input—Hole = 0.5 in. (12.7 mm)
4. Optional cabling for auxiliary controls—Knockout = 0.88 in. (22.2 mm)
