16.3 Earthing the Chassis
The Mediant 8000 chassis must be earthed to a stable local earth reference. Both of
the chassis earth terminals (located on PEM modules) should be connected through a
separate earth wire (4 AWG or better) to the rack's earthing. The earth connection's
resistance must not be greater than 0.1 ohm.
Earthing lugs and screws are supplied with the chassis.
To earth the chassis:
Locate two pairs of the earthing connectors on the PEM modules on the rear of
the chassis.
To each pair of the earthing connectors (on each PEM), connect a two-hole crimp
terminal tongue (supplied with the Mediant 8000) attached to earthing wire using
4 AWG copper wire. An example of an appropriate lug is a Molex heavy duty
terminal connector #19221-0169.
Earthing: The Mediant 8000 chassis must be earthed to a stable local earth
reference.
