Connecting the Power Cord
The power cord used with the product varies depending on the model. This product complies with IEC Overvoltage
Category II (energy-consuming equipment supplied from a fixed installation).
The AC6801A line cord has a molded plug on both ends.
The AC6802A is a single-phase, cord-connected device that requires a plug and cord set. The AC6802A
line cord must have a plug on the utility side; you cannot hard wire the instrument to the utility.
Possible Electric Shock
This product is an IEC Safety Class I equipment (equipment with a protective conductor terminal). Be
sure to ground (earth) the unit.
Connect the protective conductor terminal to earth ground.
AC6801A
Connect the power cord to the AC connector on the back of the instrument. Then connect the other end to a
properly grounded power outlet. You will use this plug to disconnect from mains power.
Use the supplied power cord to connect to the AC line. If the supplied power cord cannot be used due to the rated
voltage or the plug shape, have a qualified engineer replace it with an appropriate power cord of length 3 m or less.
If obtaining a power cord is difficult,
.
The power cord with a plug can be used to disconnect the instrument from the AC line in an emergency. Connect
the plug to an easily accessible power outlet so that the plug can be removed from the outlet at any time. Be sure to
allow enough space around the power outlet.
To connect the power cord:
1.
Check that the AC power supply meets the instrument's nominal input rating, which is any nominal voltage
from 100 to 120 VAC or 200 to 240 VAC. The frequency is 50 or 60 Hz.
Large voltage distortion on the AC power line can lead to malfunction. Do not connect the
instrument to a generator or a similar device.
2.
Check that the power switch is turned off.
3.
Connect the power cord to the AC input receptacle on the rear panel.
4.
Insert the power plug into an outlet.
