Grounding Your Unit
To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, you must reliably
connect an earth grounding conductor to the unit.
Note: The DC units are intended for installation with an isolated DC return (DC-I)
and are to be installed in a Common Bonding Network (CBN) per
GR-1089-CORE.
To ground your unit:
1. Remove the Phillips screw and the grounding lug from the front panel
of your unit.
2. Prepare the ground wire (#14 AWG, green), and attach one of its ends
to the unit’s grounding lug using a crimping tool.
3. Use the Phillips screw to attach the grounding lug and wire assembly to
the font panel of your unit.
4. Ground the other end of the wire as per your local regulation.
Your unit is now grounded properly.
Note: For particular installation needs, you can attach your own grounding lug
and wire to the back panel of the unit (to the corresponding holes) instead.
WARNING
All wiring and installation must be in accordance with local building
and electrical codes acceptable to the authorities in the countries
where the equipment is installed and used.
If you are not sure on how to proceed, consult a certified
electrician.
