Connecting to Two Power Sources
Refer to Figure 2-17 as you perform the following procedure.
To connect two power sources:
1. Ground the I-Series chassis by attaching a 14 to 20 AWG solid copper ground cable
(customer-provided) to the ground connector on the front panel of the chassis directly below
the power connectors.
2. Make sure the power supply is currently disconnected.
3. Identify the positive and negative leads.
4. Make sure the wires (14 to 20 AWG solid copper, customer-provided) are stripped to 0.25 inch
(6.3 mm) +
0.02 inch (0.5 mm). Stripping more can leave exposed wire from the power
connector.
5. Insert the positive wire from the primary source into the primary connector (marked +), as
shown in Figure 2-17. Turn the screw to secure the wire.
