Connecting the Grounding Stud
As a standard safety practice, the chassis of the CL1101 must be properly grounded to protect against any con-
tact with an electrical fault condition.
Do the following to connect to the CL1101 to ground:
1.
Use a #4 ring terminal to terminate the CL1101 end of a #18 AWG (minimum) stranded ground wire.
2.
Connect the ring terminal to the grounding stud of the CL1101. Do not over-tighten the grounding stud
hex-nut.
3.
Connect the other end of the ground wire to an electrical ground nearest the CL1101. Often this will be
on an electrical panel or sub panel. If you cannot locate a nearby electrical ground, contact Patton Techni-
cal Support at (301) 975-1000 to discuss an alternative grounding solution.
Note
Keep the length of the ground wire as short as possible.
4.
Verify that the resistance of the ground path is less than 0.5 ohms.
