Recommended Coding System

For best results with the 170XCP20000, follow this coding approach:

Installation Instructions

Follow these steps to use the 170XCP20000 cable coding kit:

1. Remove the 170XCP20000 kit from its packaging.

2. Sort the labels and markers by type and size.

3. Clean the cable surface where the marker will be placed.

4. Select the appropriate label for each cable based on your coding plan.

5. Write the cable number or wrap the pre-printed label around the cable.

6. Secure the label using the adhesive backing or nylon tie.

7. For wire ducts, attach cable tie mounts to the duct surface.

8. Route the cable tie through the mount and around the wire bundle.

9. Tighten the tie and trim excess length with scissors.

10. Verify all labels are readable from a standing position.

Do not apply 170XCP20000 labels to hot cables exceeding 60°C surface temperature. The adhesive may soften and release over time. Allow cables to cool before applying labels.

Panel Labeling Best Practices

When using the Schneider Electric 170XCP20000, follow these best practices:

Label Placement

• Place labels within 50mm of the termination point

• Orient labels for easy reading from the panel door

• Avoid placing labels on cable bends or flex points

• Keep labels away from heat sinks and power resistors

Durability Considerations

• The 170XCP20000 labels resist oil and mild solvents

• Avoid direct contact with aggressive chemicals (acetone, MEK)

• For washdown areas, apply clear heat shrink over labels

• Replace faded or damaged labels during maintenance

Documentation

• Create a cable schedule referencing each label number

• Store the schedule inside the panel door for technicians

• Update the schedule whenever cables are added or changed
