ventilation.
Connect your voltage regulator directly to a three-wire, grounded AC

power outlet. Do not remove or modify the ground pin of the voltage
regulator’s plug. Do not use adapters that would eliminate the voltage
regulator’s connection to ground.
Do not use extension cords between the voltage regulator and the AC
•
outlet. If necessary, a Tripp Lite surge suppressor may be used between
the voltage regulator and the AC outlet.
