XG/XTR 1500 and 1700 Watt AC Input Wire Connection
To make the AC input wire connections:
1. Strip the outside insulation on the AC cable approximately 4 in. (100
mm). Trim the wires so that the ground wire is 0.5 in. (12 mm) longer
than the other wires. Strip 0.55 in. (14 mm) at the end of each of the
wires.
2. Unscrew the base of the strain relief from the helix-shaped body.
Insert the base through the outside opening in the AC input cover and,
from the inside, screw the locknut securely onto the base.
3. Slide the helix-shaped body onto the AC cable. Insert the stripped
wires through the strain relief base until the outer cable jacket is flush
with the edge of the base. Tighten the body to the base while holding
the cable in place. The cable is now securely fastened inside the strain
relief.
4. Route the AC wires to the input connector terminals as required. For
AC input terminal locations, see lower inset in Figure 2-1. To connect
the wiring, loosen the terminal screw, insert the stripped wire into the
terminal, and tighten the screw securely.
5. Route the wires inside the cover to prevent pinching. Fasten the AC
cover (shown below) in kit provided to the unit using the screw
provided. See Figure 2-1.
