Appendix C DC Power
Supply Installation
This appendix describes the installation of the DC power supply wiring for the iQ ,
Option 2.
A summary of the parts are listed in Table C-1 . Follow the at a glance instructions in
Figure C-1 and for detailed instructions in Table C-2 .
CAUTION: If negative voltages are used such as Telecom -48VDC, the negative
most voltage is always connected to –ve terminal (in the Telecom case this would
be -48V) and the positive most voltage is always connected to the +ve terminal (in
the Telecom case this would be 0VR). The Chassis can be referenced to +ve, -ve
or left floating (i.e. not connected to ve or –ve) as required because the
power module is fully isolated input to chassis.
