Before you begin connecting AC power to a TCX1000-RDM20 :
Read
"Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage" on page 178
Safety Guidelines and Warnings" on page
Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge
(ESD) damage (see
"Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage" on page
Ensure that you have connected the TCX1000-RDM20 chassis to earth ground.
CAUTION:
Before you connect power to the TCX1000-RDM20, a licensed
electrician must attach a cable lug to the grounding and power cables that
you supply. A cable with an incorrectly attached lug can damage the switch
(for example, by causing a short circuit).
NOTE:
To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI)
requirements and to ensure proper operation, you must connect the chassis
to earth ground before you connect it to power. For installations that require
a separate grounding conductor to the chassis, use the protective earthing
terminal on the TCX1000-RDM20 chassis to connect to the earth ground
(see
"Connecting the TCX1000-RDM20 Grounding Cable" on page
NOTE:
An AC-powered TCX1000-RDM20 gains additional grounding when
you plug the power supply in the device into a grounded AC power outlet
by using an AC power cord appropriate for your geographical location. See
"TCX1000-RDM20 AC Power Cord Specifications" on page
