Series connections
SHOCK HAZARD
Floating voltages must not exceed 240 VDC. No output terminal may be more than 240 VDC from chassis
ground.
Only connect outputs that have identical voltage and current ratings in series.
To prevent currents from damaging the power system when the load is connected, always turn series-con-
nected outputs on and off together. Do not leave one output on while the other is off.
Connecting outputs in series provides a greater voltage capability than can be obtained from a single output.
The following figures show how to connect two outputs to a single load in Auto-Series mode.

If voltage drop in the load leads is a concern, connect the sense leads of output 2 and output 3 for 4-wire sensing as
shown in the figure on the right.
