WARNING

2 before connecting the product to AC mains 

power. 
WARNING! For protection from electric shock, the product must be grounded (earthed). The 
power  distribution  circuit  must  be  equipped  with  a fuse  or  circuit  breaker  and  ground-fault 

(earth-fault) protection. 
WARNING! Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the product with power 

must be located  near the  equipment  and  easily accessible  so  that  the  product can  easily  be 

disconnected from power. 
WARNING! Check that the voltage range specified on the serial number label matches the local 

AC mains power voltage before applying power to the product.  Do not apply AC mains power 

to the product at any other voltage than that specified. 

 

Power cables and power plug 

The Winch 50 Series requires a power input cable with a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 NAC3FX-W(-
TOP) cable connector for AC mains power input. The cable must rated 20A minimum, have three 

conductors 1,5mm2 (AWG 16) minimum conductor size and an outer cable diameter of 6-16mm 
(0.24-0.47 inch). Cables must be heat resistant to 90°C (194°F) minimum. In the EU the cables must 

be <HAR> approved or equivalent and in the USA minimum hard usage type SJT or equivalent. 

 
If you install a power plug on the power cable, install a grounding-type (earthed) plug that is rated 

20  A for USA and  16A  fo

standard wire color-coding schemes and some possible pin identification schemes; if pins are not 
clearly  identified,  or  if  you  have  any  doubts  about  proper  installation,  consult  a  qualified 

electrician.
