PROPER GROUNDING AND INSTALLATION TIPS
WARNING – Proper Grounding
Your Monster PowerCenter requires a properly grounded 3-wire outlet to protect connected equipment. If your AC outlet
is improperly wired (no ground or reverse polarity), the green “SYSTEM GROUNDED” LED on the front panel of the
Professional PowerCenter
™
PRO 5100 will not light up. Many older buildings are inadequately wired. It’s very common
for a building to be improperly grounded. Building wiring and grounding must conform to applicable NEC (USA) or CEC
(Canada) codes. If you’re not sure about the wiring, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
Important Note –
Proper Power and Protection
To completely deliver clean power and protect your equipment from electrical surges, every phone, coaxial cable,
and AC power cord in your system must be connected to an appropriate Monster PowerCenter outlet.
