Before device installation begins, a licensed electrician must
attach a cable lug to the grounding and power cables that you supply. A cable
with an incorrectly attached lug can damage the device (for example, by
causing a short circuit).
To ground the device before connecting power, you connect the grounding cable to earth
ground and then attach the lug on the cable to the chassis grounding point with the
screw.
