Grounding the IDS Switch
If your installation requires additional grounding, follow this procedure.
Grounding the chassis requires the following items:
• One grounding lug (not provided)
• One 12AWG wire (not provided)
Follow the manufacturers instructions for attaching the ground wire to the grounding lug.
The grounding lug can be found on the top of the IDS switch, next to the power connector.
Attach the grounding lug to the chassis and secure with the grounding screw provided.
