WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF AN ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE TO WATER, RAIN OR MOISTURE
• WARNING: MUST BE CONNECTED TO A MAINS WITH A PROTECTIVE EARTHING CONNECTION
• WARNING: FOR PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, THE MAINS PLUG OR AC INLETS USED AS THE DISCONNECT
DEVICES SHALL BE INSTALLED NEAR THE EQUIPMENT AND SHOULD REMAIN READILY ACCESSIBLE
• WARNING: FOR PERMANENTLY CONNECTED EQUIPMENT A READILY ACCESSIBLE DISCONNECT DEVICE
SHALL BE INSTALLED NEAR THE EQUIPMENT POWER SOURCE.
• CAUTION: NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read these instructions
• Keep these instructions
• Heed all warnings
• Follow all instructions
• Do not use this apparatus near water
• Clean only with dry cloth
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the apparatus
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged
in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert
the user to the presence of uninsulated
dangerous voltage within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons
DANGEROUS VOLTAGE
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the

ATTENTION
GROUNDING METHODS FOR HARD WIRED POWER STRIPS
STANDARD GROUND MODEL
The green or bare wire extending from the power strip into the J-box is to be connected to the J-box grounding
stud along with the ground wire from the feeder circuit. If there is no ground wire contained in the feeder
circuit, a metallic conduit connection will act as the equipment grounding conductor.
ISOLATED GROUND MODEL
The green wire with the yellow stripe extending from the power strip into the J-box is NOT to be connected
to the J-box grounding stud. This wire is to be connected to an "isolated" (insulated) ground wire coming
from the feeder circuit. This isolated ground wire will only be connected to the ground of the Isolated
Receptacles. The power strip chassis must be connected to a separate safety ground, which is connected to the
J-box grounding stud, or the chassis ground may be provided by a metallic conduit connection.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Although this metallic conduit grounding method is allowed by the National Electrical Code, a separate
grounding conductor is highly recommended to reduce the potential for ground loops in the signal path.
CIRCUIT ARRANGEMENT
Multiple circuit power strips can be wired for single or multiple circuit operation.
Each circuit of the power strip must be connected to a circuit with an overcurrent protection device protecting each
circuit.
