Connecting the Safety Ground
Proper grounding of the G700 Media Gateway installation safeguards the system, users and
service personnel by providing protection from lightning, power surges, AC mains faults, power
crosses on central office trunks, and electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Local electrical installation codes must be followed when installing G700 Media Gateways.

WARNING:
An improper ground can cause electrical shock as well as equipment failures and
service outages.

screw on the chassis) to the length needed to terminate it into one of the terminals of the
ground block.
Do not coil the Supplementary Ground Conductor.
5. Attach one end of the remaining 10 AWG (4mm
2
) ground wire to one of the terminals in the
ground block and the other end to an approved ground.
6. Cut this ground wire to the length needed to reach the approved ground.
Do not coil this wire.
