Chapter 2 Install the PowerMonitor 5000 Unit
Wire the PowerMonitor 
5000 Unit
The PowerMonitor 5000 unit is equipped with screw terminals with pressure 
plates and finger protection for the control power, I/O wiring, and voltage 
connections. The I/O wiring block is removable.
Current sensing conductors are routed through openings in the power monitor 
housing.

Wire Requirements
Grounding
This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface, 
such as a metal panel. The upper mounting slots are equipped with protective 
conductor terminals, which must make metal-to-metal contact with the 
mounting panel. In solid-state systems, grounding helps limit the effects of noise 
due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). 
Connect a 2.5 mm
2
 (14 AWG) wire from the GND terminal of the 
PowerMonitor 5000 unit to the ground bus or other low-impedance earth 
ground before you connect the control power or any other connections.
