, two
conductor plus ground, IEC 320 connector on one end, and a
wall-socket plug on the other end that is certified for use in the
country of installation. The entire cordset must be certified for
use in the country of installation.
Avoid Electric Overload: This unit is designed to be pow-
ered from 100–120 and 200–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz. To avoid
electric shock, fire hazard, or damage to the instrument, do not
apply a higher or lower voltage.
Grounding: The unit is grounded through the grounding con-

ing conductor must be connected to earth ground. Before
making connections to the input or output terminals of the
instrument, ensure that the product is properly grounded.
