To ground the router, you need the following tools:
Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2
ESD grounding wrist strap
Two SAE 10-32 screws and paint piercing washers (not provided)
Grounding lug, Panduit LCD06-10-A or equivalent (not provided)
Grounding cable, minimum 6 AWG (13.3 mm
You ground the router by connecting a grounding cable to earth ground and then attaching
it to the chassis grounding points. To ground the router:
Verify that a licensed electrician has attached the cable lug provided with the router
1.
to the grounding cable.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect
2.
the strap to an approved site ESD grounding point. See the instructions for your site.
Ensure that all grounding surfaces are clean and brought to a bright finish before
