INSTALLATION GUIDE
2 of 2
C. Connect the 4-Conductor Data Cable
1. Route a 4-conductor cable into the J-box, strip
four wires to expose 1cm (3/8in) of wire, and
cut the drain wire back to the outer sheath.
2. Insert wires in holes in the spring-loaded
terminal block by pushing the orange buttons
beside the holes. Note the function label on the
PC board beside each button.
D. Connect Power to J-Box
CAUTION:
The J-Box must connect to a branch
circuit controlled by a disconnect device, such as a
circuit breaker, with at least a 3mm disconnect
separation. Recommended capacity of the
disconnect device branch circuit is 10A, and the
device must be readily accessible. If these
conditions cannot be met, install a disconnect
device (with at least 3mm separation) in series with
the J-Box, and between the branch and the J-Box.
If using conduit
1. Remove the cover over terminal block TB3.
2. Route 50 or 60Hz electrical power into the J-
box through the small knockout and connect it
to TB3 (see table opposite).
Note:
Steps 3–5 for RJ860AP1 only. Otherwise,
skip to step 6.
3. An 18cm (7in) ground wire from TB3 is attached
to a grounding post on the enclosure. Remove
the washer and nut from the grounding post
and remove the ground wire terminal.
4. Wrap the branch circuit ground wire completely
around the grounding post and secure using the
washer and nut.
5. Reattach the TB3 ground wire terminal to the
grounding post and secure using the extra
washer and nut supplied.
6. Reattach the cover over TB3.
If using line cord
CAUTION:
Use only polarized plug/cord sets; non-
polarized plugs invalidate regulatory approvals!
Cord type:
North America: The cord must be type SJT, with
minimum conductor size of 18AWG and fitted with a
connector rated at 10A, 125V. The cord anchor
accepts cords with a 5–9mm outer diameter.
EU: The cord must be type H05 VV-F or H05 VV
H2-F, with minimum conductor size of .75mm2 and
fitted with a connector rated at 10A. The cord
anchor accepts cords with a 5–9mm outer diameter.
1. Remove the cover over terminal block TB3.
2. Place the anchor for the power cord in the
knockout and pass the power cord through the
anchor.
3. Remove the outer sheath from the power cord
and cut the three wires inside to length with the
ground wire being the longest so it will break
last if the anchor fails.
4. Connect the line and neutral leads to TB3 (see
table below). Tie wrap these leads close to
TB3.
RJ860AP1 only.
An 18cm (7in) ground wire
from TB3 is attached to a grounding post on the
enclosure. Remove the washer and nut from
the grounding post and remove the ground wire
from the post.
RJ860AP and RJ860AP2 only.
Install a ring
terminal on the power cord’s ground wire. Place
this terminal over the grounding post and
secure using the washer and nut.
RJ860AP1 only.
Reattach the TB3 ground wire
terminal to the grounding post and secure using
the extra washer and nut supplied.
5. Tighten the anchor to secure the power cord.
6. Reattach the cover over TB3.
