Grounding Your Unit
Grounding Your Unit
Your unit uses an international safety standard three-wire power cable.
This cable serves as a ground when connected to an appropriate AC power
outlet.
Depending on your setup, you may also want to ground your unit with the
grounding lug that serves as a frame (chassis) terminal.
To ground your unit:
1.
Remove the two Phillips screws and the grounding lug from the back
panel of your unit.
2.
Prepare the ground wire (minimum 14 AWG, green), and attach one of
its ends to the unit’s grounding lug using a crimping tool.
3.
Use the two Phillips screws to attach the grounding lug and wire
assembly to the back panel of your unit.
4.
Ground the other end of the wire as per your local regulation.
Your unit is now grounded properly.

Never connect a hazardous live voltage to the frame (chassis)
