Figure 19 Connecting the grounding cable to the grounding hole of the switch chassis
4. Remove the hex nut of a grounding post on the grounding strip.
5. Cut the grounding cable as appropriate for connecting to the grounding strip.
6. Make the connector for connecting to the grounding strip:
If an OT terminal is available, peel 5 mm (0.20 in) of insulation sheath by using a wire stripper,
and insert the bare metal part through the black insulation covering into the end of the OT
terminal, secure the metal part of the cable to the OT terminal with a crimper, cover the joint with
the insulation covering, and heat the insulation covering with a blow dryer to completely cover
the metal part (see callout A in Figure 20).
If no OT terminal is available, peel the insulation sheath as appropriate using a wire stripper,
and bend the bare metal part into a ring (see callout B in Figure 20). Attach the OT terminal or
the ring to the grounding strip through the grounding post, and fasten it with the removed hex nut,
as shown in Figure 21.
