8.2.2 Earth Ground
On the rear panel of the equipment an earth ground is available.
It is provided to:
• Ensure that all equipment chassis fixed within a rack are at the same technical earth potential.
This is done by connecting a wire between the technical earth terminal and a suitable point on the
rack.
• Eliminate the migration of stray charges when connecting between equipment.
In accordance to TNV-1 grounding requirements, the grounding thread of the device
must be connected according to the local regulations.
The following figure shows the position and how to connect the earth ground.
