The terminal block of the power supply has four terminals labeled V+, V+, V–, and V– for connecting
DC power source cables labeled positive (+) and negative (–). The V+ terminals are shunted internally
together, as are the V- terminals.
CAUTION: The connection between each power source and power supply must
include a circuit breaker.
Do not connect two sources to a single power supply because doing so can
potentially cause circulating current in feed wires whenever there is any difference
in the voltage of the two sources.
a. Secure the ring lug of the positive (+) DC power source cable to the V+ terminal on the DC power
supply.
b. Secure the ring lug of the negative (–) DC power source cable to the V– terminal on the DC power
supply.
c. Tighten the screws on the power supply terminals until snug using the screwdriver. Do not
overtighten—apply between 5 in-lb (0.56 Nm) and 6 in-lb (0.68 Nm) of torque to the screws.
