All equipment shall be functionally complete. All equipment shall be completely engineered, fabricated, pre-wired and ready for installation into an operating condition. Field assembly shall not be required. The manufacturer of the enclosure shall also be the assembler of the capacitor bank.
The capacitor bank enclosure shall be of unitized construction (not structural frame and bolted sheet) to maximize strength, minimize weight, and inhibit internal corrosion. The basic material for the enclosure, roof, and doors shall be 11-gauge, hot rolled, pickled and oiled steel.
a) To ensure a completely coordinated design, the pad-mounted capacitor bank shall be constructed in accordance with the minimum construction specifications required to provide adequate electrical clearances and adequate space for operation of the unit and any required handling of components. Specifications must be verified by factory.
For applications requiring conservative design practices, manufacture shall supply capacitor design capable of passing test of DC 6.25 x rated voltage. Each capacitor shall be subjected to the routine production tests as specified in the applicable standard. Production tests shall include:
Field assembly shall not be required. The manufacturer of the enclosure shall also be the assembler of the capacitor bank. This is to ensure the highest degree of control with respect to critical enclosure manufacturing processes such as cleaning and surface preparation, welding, priming, and painting.
1. The capacitor bank shall be shall be equipped with Heavy Duty Distribution Class Surge/Lightning Arresters. The rating of the Surge Arrester shall be recommended by the capacitor bank supplier. Each capacitor bank stage shall be equipped with transient inrush reactors.

Film Capacitors – Power Factor Correction
Maintain good, effective grounding of capacitor enclosures. Provide the means to isolate any faulty units/banks in the system. Handle capacitor units carefully, as they may be charged even after disconnection due to faulty discharging devices. Follow proper engineering practices.

Why is there a capacitor between chassis ground and signal
Where you have a metal enclosure, shields are always best terminated to the outside of the enclosure, and bond circuit ground internally to the enclosure close to connectors. If you can find a copy, see Henry Ott''s Electromagnetic Compatibility Engineering §2.15.2, §3.2.5, §12.4.2 and §16.2 in particular.
