Power Cable for the Lightweight Maintenance Enclosure
The LME as used by the Army does not use a 50 foot or 100 foot power cable which has an NSN. The
power distribution box was designed to be used with a cable of approximately 25 to 50 feet in length.
The cable does not have a connector at either end as the cable is connected to the power distribution
box as shown. The same method of wire stripping and connection is used at the generator.
Military cable type CO-04-MGF 4/8 having four (4) conductors of number eight (8) wire size may be
used, or the commercial equivalent. Flexible, medium duty commercial type SO having four (4)
conductors of wire size number 8 is suitable to connect the power distribution box to the load terminals
of the electric power generator.
The attachment of the cable to the power distribution box, generator load terminals and the operation of
the electric power generator should be accomplished by a qualified generator operator in accordance
with the Technical Manual for the generator being used.
