As shown in Figure B-1 , a
star ground
is often used to obtain the same earth reference
ground. Each earth reference ground, such as the system base ground, is returned
separately to a common point where a zero-volt (0V) earth ground exists. The star
ground ensures that all equipment is at the same potential and that no noise or safety
problems associated with an unpredictable or uncharacterized grounding system will
occur.

Circuit Wiring Diagrams
The following circuit wiring diagrams show how the hot, ground, and/or neutral AC
signals should be connected to the power input plugs of the system and optional
components:

Figure B-4 illustrates a single-phase 120V AC circuit connection.

Figure B-5 illustrates a single-phase 240V AC circuit connection.

Figure B-6 illustrates a split-phase 120/240V AC circuit connection.

Figure B-7 illustrates a three-phase 208V AC, Y-, or

-source circuit connection,
phase-to-phase.

Figure B-8 illustrates a three-phase 380V AC, Y-, or

-source circuit connection,
phase-to-neutral.
In the following diagrams, the power inputs for ftServer 2600, 4500, and 6300 systems
are labeled X and Y, as shown in Figure B-2 and Figure B-3 , to eliminate any
ambiguities in the nomenclature. For single-phase applications, the X input is
1 To monitor
2 To ftServer system
3 Earth reference ground (0V)
