AC POWER REQUIREMENTS  

Standard JBL DrivePack systems are equipped with a DP multi-channel Crown Class-I power amplifier and 
loudspeaker specific DSP electronics and require appropriate AC power.  

CAUTION:

 In compliance with safety agency criteria and proper system operation, it is critical 

that the system installer observe all electrical safety practices at all times and provide proper earth 
grounding for all AC Power connections.  

AC POWER CORD KIT

Convenience 10VAC North America NEMA 5-15 Edison type AC plug to PowerCon® connector and 
0V Europe CEE 7/7 Schuko type AC plug to PowerCon connector cord sets are provided with this JBL 
DrivePack product for light-duty shop testing or system configuration type use. 

One spare gray Neutrik (P/N NACFCB) PowerCon connector is included in the AC Power Cord Set for your 
convenience to create a pass-through AC power cable.  To create a pass-through cable the system installer 
may choose to simply cut off the AC plug from one of the provided AC cord sets and replace it with the 
provided Gray PowerCon AC Outlet connector. Follow the wiring convention indicated in Table 1.  
NOTE: Tighten set screws to .5Nm (1.8lb-ft) torque to prevent opening by hand.  

USER-FABRICATED AC POWER DISTRIBUTION 

System owners may choose to fabricate or purchase a custom AC Power cable infrastructure optimized for 
their specific JBL DrivePack system configuration.  See Table 1 for custom application wiring and connector 
information.  

NOTE:

 Parts not provided. 

 

CAUTION:

 Do not exceed 80% current rating of any AC connector at any time!  See Table  for 

current draw information.

With the two non-interchangeable types of connectors (A-type, B-type) it is impossible to produce a short 
circuit. Mating connectors (combination) are identified by mechanical keyways and by color.
