Mains Connections
The user must supply suitable power cables. He may then either hard-wire the power cables
to the building’s electrical
installation, providing an easily accessible power on/off switch close to the device, or install on the power cables a
grounding-type (earthed) mains plug that is suitable for the local power outlets, following the power plug manufac-
turer’s instru
ctions.
It is possible, but not required to use two different mains sources. However, it is important to notice that the earth
conductors of the two mains supplies will be short-circuited by connecting the two mains supplies to the same XES-
8G. Consult a qualified electrician, if you have any doubts about the proper installation.
A blue
Neutrik powerCON NAC3FCA
cable mount connector must be used to supply power at the XES-8G
’s
power input
socket.
Warning! For protection against dangerous electrical shocks, the device must be grounded (earthed). The
local AC power source must be supplied with both overload and ground-fault (earth fault) protection.
