NOTICE
In a high AC/DC and low DC (24/48 V) power module arrangement, the
placement of the AC and DC power supplies is not slot-dependent. Either power
module slot can be used for AC or DC power.
For maximum redundancy in a dual power module configuration, use two
independent power sources.
Use minimum #16 gage copper wiring when connecting terminal blocks.
The maximum wire length between the terminal block and power source must
not exceed 6 m (20 ft) for 24 V power supplies or 18 m (60 ft) for 48 V power
supplies.
For 125/230 VAC rated equipment, an appropriately rated AC circuit breaker
must be installed.
For 125/250 VDC rated equipment, an appropriately rated DC circuit breaker
must be installed.
It is recommended to provide a 20 A circuit breaker for the power module.
Equipment must be installed according to applicable local wiring codes and
standards.
