If the iTC is mounted in a rack, ensure that the rear of the rack is open. Site the rack at least 30
cm from a wall or other obstruction, to ensure adequate airflow around the iTC.
3.3 Connecting electrical power
USE THE SUPPLIED MAINS CABLE
Only use the electrical supply cable included with the equipment.
UTILISEZ UNIQUEMENT LE CÂBLE FOURNI
Utilisez uniquement le câble d'alimentation électrique fourni avec
l'équipement..
Connect the equipment to an electrical supply using the mains cable supplied.
In the EU, the mains supply cable must be rated for the maximum current rating of the
equipment. The cable must meet the requirements of IEC227 or IEC245. Mains cables certified
or approved by any recognised national test house are regarded as meeting this requirement.
In the USA, the mains cable must be a listed mains cable set approved to the standard UL817
for cable sets and power supply cables. The mains plug must be a separable plug without a
locking device. If the mains cable is to be a disconnecting device for the equipment, the cable
must be shorter than 3 m. The cable set must be suitable for purpose and must have a current
rating at least 125% that of the equipment rating.
In Canada, the cable set must be certified by CSA.
Green/yellow covered conductors must only be used for connection to protective ground
terminals.
The back panel contains an IEC C14 connector for the main electrical supply to the
MercuryiTC. Section 17.2 gives mains electrical requirements.
