AC Input Connections
All CPS100 Series units operate on single-phase AC input through an AC input terminal block
on the rear panel. Before making any connections, read the following warnings.

shock exits!
There is certain danger if the connection of the AC power source is not made
correctly. Please assure that the AC power cable used is installed by a qualified
electrician or otherwise authorized personnel. If the AC input will be hard wired to
the mains, make sure this is only done by a qualified electrician and a suitable
