2.1. Installation Guidelines
Follow these guidelines when installing your Clavister SG4500 Series appliance:
• Safety
Take notice of the safety guidelines laid out in Chapter 6, Safety Precautions . These are
specified in multiple languages.
• Power
Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded and then use the power cord
supplied with the appliance to connect it to the power source.
• Using Other Power Cords
If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the appliance,
be sure to use a cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for
power cords in your country. Such marks are an assurance that the cord is safe.
• Power Overload
Ensure that the appliance does not overload the power circuits, wiring and over-current
protection.
To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add together the ampere
ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the appliance and compare the total
with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ratings for the SG4500 Series are listed in
Appendix A, Specifications . Rating figures can also be found written on individual SG4500
Series PSU modules.
