Redbox User Handbook No 1
Power Cable and Connection
An IEC power connector is supplied with the Redbox, which has a moulded plug, attached
– this is a legal requirement. If no moulded plug has been supplied with your Redbox, please
contact your supplier, because an IEC connector is always supplied from the Sonifex factory.
If for any reason, you need to use the Redbox with a different power cable, you should use
the following wiring guidelines:
Wire Colour
Connection
Green, or green and yellow
Earth (E)
Blue, or Black
Neutral (N)
Brown, or Red
Live (L)
Fig B: Mains Cable Wire Colours
Ordering the Correct Mains Lead
When ordering a Redbox from Sonifex, it is helpful if you can specify your required
operating voltage and mains lead. After the product code add:
UK, for 230V, UK 3 pin to IEC lead
EC, for 230V, European Schuko 2 pin to IEC lead
US, for 115V, 3 pin to IEC lead
AU for 230V, Australasian 3 pin to IEC lead
Fig C: Mains Lead Table.
E.g. order RB-SC1 UK for a UK IEC lead to be supplied.
Installation Information
Atmosphere
The units should be installed in an area that is not subject to excessive temperature
variation (<0°C, >50°C), moisture, dust or vibration.
Electromagnetic Radiation
The cover is connected to earth by means of the fixing screws. It is essential to maintain
this earth ground connection to ensure a safe operating environment and provide
electromagnetic shielding.
Fitting Redboxes
Redboxes can be fixed to the underside of a mixing desk, or other surfaces using 4.2mm
holes in the sides and fixed with 2 x M4 screws or 2 x No. 6 countersink wood screws.
