DC Power Connections
7705 SAR-8 Installation Guide Page 93
Required tools and hardware:
• one or two DC power wiring harnesses (two harnesses are required for redundant 
power configurations) 
• torque driver for slot screws 
For -48 VDC installations
Follow these steps to wire and connect –48 VDC power feeds (see Figure 23):
Step 1. For CBN installations only, ensure that the positive terminal on the DC power source 
is connected to ground.
Step 2. Make the battery return ground connection(s) (Figure 23, key item 5). 
Attach the black lead (+VDC) on the power harness to the positive terminal on the 
power source.
Step 3. Make the battery connection(s) to the disconnect device (Figure 23, key item 1). 
Attach the blue lead (-VDC) on the power harness to the disconnect device.
Attach the other side of the disconnect device to the negative terminal of the power 
source.
Step 4. For redundant supply configurations, repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the other power 
harness.
Step 5. Check that the DC supply wiring is correct.
Step 6. Attach the connector on the power harness to the D-Sub 2W2 connector on the 
7705 SAR-8.
Step 7. Install the other 7705 SAR-8 components. See Installing the Components.
