You should also consider the following safety points:
• Install the drive in an enclosure that limits the user’s access to live parts, gives 

adequate system stability, and provides the necessary grounding for the drive.

• Provide the correct voltages (+5 VDC and +12 VDC) based on the regulation 

applied—Extra Low Voltage (SEC) for UL and CSA, and Safety Extra Low Voltage for 

BSI and VDE (if applicable).
