12 Connecting High AC/DC Power
CAUTION!
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment. Before testing the dielectric strength (HIPOT) in the
field, remove the braided ground cable connected to the surge ground terminal and chassis ground.
This cable connects transient suppression circuitry to chassis ground and must be removed in order to
avoid damage to transient suppression circuitry during testing.
NOTE
Torque all terminal connections to 0.6 N·m (5 lbf-in).
1. Secure the power terminal block to the device.
2. Connect the positive wire from the power source to the positive/live (+/L) terminal on the terminal block.
