Installation
Mains Operating Voltage
This instrument has a universal input range and will operate from a nominal 115V or 230V mains
supply without adjustment. Check that the local supply meets the AC Input requirement given in
the Specification.
Mains Lead
Connect the instrument to the AC supply using the mains lead provided. Should a mains plug be
required for a different mains outlet socket, a suitably rated and approved mains lead set should
be used which is fitted with the required wall plug and an IEC60320 C13 connector for the
instrument end. To determine the minimum current rating of the lead-set for the intended AC
supply, refer to the power rating information on the equipment or in the Specification.
WARNING! THIS INSTRUMENT MUST BE EARTHED
.
Any interruption of the mains earth conductor inside or outside the instrument will make the
instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
Connections
All connections are made from the front panel.
The load should be connected to the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals marked
OUTPUT. Both are fully floating and either can be connected to ground.
Remote sense connections to the load, if required, are made from the positive (+) and
negative (

sensing is required. Switch back to LOCAL when remote sensing is not in use.
The terminal marked
