OPERATION GUIDE
4.4. Grounding
The Access Point must be grounded before applying power. The following
grounding instructions must be followed. See local electrical codes for any
additional installation requirements.
Using a 6 AWG copper wire, strip back insulation and connect to the supplied wire
ground lug [Panduit LCD6-10A-L]. Attach the ground lug to the AP ground pad
using the supplied silicone grease and two screws [#10-32 x 3/8-inch]. Different
ground lugs (not supplied) can be used to provide 90° and 45° angle options
if needed.
Connect the ground wire to a suitable metal grounding rod. Securely connect the
ground wire to provide proper grounding protection. Once the Access Point ground
connection is completed, power can then be applied safely.
