Be sure to connect the ground wire or conduit to a solid office (earth) ground. A closed
loop ring is recommended for terminating the ground conductor at the ground stud.
A DC-powered router that is equipped with a DC terminal block is intended only for
installation in a restricted access location. In the United States, a restricted access
area is one in accordance with Articles 110-16, 110-17, and 110-18 of the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA 70.
NOTE: Primary overcurrent protection is provided by the building circuit
breaker. This breaker should protect against excess currents, short circuits,
and earth faults in accordance with NEC ANSI/NFPA70.
Ensure that the polarity of the DC input wiring is correct. Under certain conditions,
connections with reversed polarity might trip the primary circuit breaker or damage
the equipment.
For personal safety, connect the green and yellow wire to safety (earth) ground at both
the router and the supply side of the DC wiring.
The marked input voltage of –48 VDC for a DC-powered router is the nominal voltage
associated with the battery circuit, and any higher voltages are only to be associated
with float voltages for the charging function.
Because the router is a positive ground system, you must connect the positive lead to
the terminal labeled
RTN
ground to the chassis grounding points.
