Failing to plan is planning to fail. Although the Aderis ClearSky™ Interconnection is very simple to design for and incorporate into your project design, there are aspects of the equipment that should be considered in the initial design to avoid unnecessary costs and difficulties during construction.


Installation Location

The Aderis ClearSky’s low profile and compact design provides Developers and Engineers and unprecedented level of flexibility regarding installation location. While many Customers choose to incorporate the padmount gear into the equipment pad closest to the point of interconnection, others choose to locate the Aderis ClearSky at the Point of Interconnection (POI).

If you have concerns about the location of the Aderis ClearSky’s metering and the POI, we recommend one of the following 2 approaches:

Aderis ClearSky™ located at equipment pad, point of interconnection in the background

Aderis ClearSky™ located at equipment pad, point of interconnection in the background

Orientation & Clearances

While the Aderis ClearSky is very compact, appropriate electrical, service, and door swing clearances should be considered prior to determining final pad dimensions and placement of conduits entry points.

All Aderis ClearSky Mechanical drawings provide dimensions of electrical termination cabinet conduit locations and open door swings.
