Connecting AC Power
To connect a high AC power supply to the device, do the following:
NOTICE
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Do not connect AC power cables to a DC power supply terminal block. Damage to
the power supply may occur.
NOTICE
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Before testing the dielectric strength (HIPOT) in the field, remove the braided
ground cable connected to the surge ground terminal and chassis ground. This cable
connects transient suppression circuitry to chassis ground and must be removed in
order to avoid damage to transient suppression circuitry during testing.
