Powering and Grounding the PTX-PRO
For safe operation, all equipment must be properly grounded.
•
Connect the unit to a common (vehicle or aircraft) ground.
•
Make the ground wire as short and straight as possible.
CAUTION
Be sure the equipment grounding follows applicable electrical codes.
Never modify a grounded power plug to connect to an ungrounded
receptacle.
Ensure that the power being supplied matches the power required by
the equipment. You can find power ratings for equipment on a rating
plate, usually on the rear panel. Ensure that the electrical supply is
protected by over-current protection devices as required by the
applicable electrical codes. If necessary, consult a licensed electrician.
